Re: [OE-core] [meta-oe][RFC PATCH 1/2] libdecor: initial add recipe

[Markus Volk <f_l_k@t-online.de>]

To my knowledge libsdl2 is the  only consumer of libdecor right now. If 
you want to be able to run sdl programs
in windows instead of just having them pasted to the background you 
would want to enable it by default.
I love libsdl so my answer would be ... of course it should be build 
with decoration by default for weston.
But on the other hand ... its mostly useful for games and fun stuff so 
it really depends on your goals.
