It should work. There have been some changes made to the build files, and those changes are in the latest testing... backporting fixes to latest commercial doesn't happen, so that's why its always a good idea to check latest testing to see if things that were broke have been fixed. > I think the main issue is the build environment.

Those other libraries shouldn't get pulled in if they aren't installed... you only need to exclude them when they are on your system and you want to explicitly exclude them. > Under Linux, cvsnt builds without much effort.
