Build shmdata support statically
Summary
Current support for shmdata depends on the library being installed on the system. As it is not well integrated in packaging systems this can be a hurdle. As shmdata gives the best performances (especially with high resolution content), we want it to be always available.
How would you like the feature to work ?
- add shmdata as a submodule (in
/externals
) - compile shmdata as static
- link Splash to shmdata statically
Why is this feature important to you ?
Less trouble keeping shmdata support.
