| 19 | == Switches == |
| 20 | There are a number of build switches, which you can see with: |
| 21 | {{{ |
| 22 | ./setup.py --help |
| 23 | }}} |
| 24 | [[BR]] |
| 25 | |
| 26 | Many of those switches are related to [/wiki/Encodings picture encodings]. |
| 27 | On some platforms with older versions of libraries, it is possible, preferable and often mandatory to build static versions of the codecs. (see "{{{--with-static*}}}" flags) |

| 30 | == Patching == |
| 31 | There are a number of [/browser/xpra/trunk/src/patches patches in the source tree] that may need to be applied to build on some platforms to deal with library or tools compatibility. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | In particular, many Debian versions require the "{{{old-libav*}}}" patches. |
