213 <parameter>CFLAGS="-O2" CXXFLAGS="-O2"</parameter>: By default,
214 <application>Autoconf</application> sets CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS to
215 "-g -O2". That results in binaries and libraries being built with
216 debugging symbols which make them bigger. Override the default
217 flags to omit -g compiler flag so the final libraries are smaller.

219
220 <para>
221 <parameter>--disable-gallium-egl</parameter>: This switch disables
222 the egl_gallium loader in favor of egl_dri2 loader which supports
223 both DRI and Gallium drivers.

225
226 <para>
227 <parameter>--enable-texture-float</parameter>: This switch enables
228 floating-point textures and render buffers. Please consult

278 controls which Gallium drivers should be built. Available drivers
279 are: i915, ilo, nouveau, r300, r600, radeonsi, svga and swrast. You
280 will need to remove r300, r600 and radeonsi from the list if you did
281 not install <application>elfutils</application> and
