Klaus,

how about accepting the case, that the world has more than one Linux 
distribution and in addition, there is not only Linux where VDR can run 
on.
How about beeing a little bit less ignorant when it comes to VDR and 
portability.
What do you think why we have tools like pkg-config or autotools and so 
many projects make use of it? Because its funny? I don't think so!

What's the big deal with Villa's proposal to change two lines in the 
Makefile when it breaks nothing for you and makes life easier for other 
users?

Sorry for beeing harsh
Joerg
