We have checks in configure for those, I wanted a more human-readable and readily available version.

If/when we introduce Rust and/or C++ etc, I would also expect an explicit doc section about it. > With regards, > Daniel > -- > |: https://berrange.com -o- https://www.flickr.com/photos/dberran= ge :| > |: https://libvirt.org -o- https://fstop138.berrange.c= om :| > |: https://entangle-photo.org -o- https://www.instagram.com/dberran= ge :| >
