Hi,
I'm not really sure if I understand this right?
Are you asking why ./playground install immediately complains if a
library is missing? The reason for that was that often it took long time
to compile just to realize at the end that installation failed because a
library is missing. Therefore the check is done at the start. Also GCC
often printed a lot of "missing symbol" errors and it was hard to find
which missing library is actually causing the problem.
Greats,
Mac
