[GRASS-dev] ZSTD compressor not compiled by default if available

Dears,

do I understand it wrong that, if available in a system, the ZSTD
compressor _should_ be compiled by default? Or does the choice for
"default" concern only the `r.compress` module?

In trunk:

./configure --help |grep zstd
  --with-zstd             support Zstandard functionality (default: no)
  --with-zstd-includes=DIRS
  --with-zstd-libs=DIRS   ZSTD library files are in DIRS

Thank you, Nikos

I don't think so as it says "default: no" (see below).

Or does the choice for
"default" concern only the `r.compress` module?

In trunk:

./configure --help |grep zstd
  --with-zstd             support Zstandard functionality (default: no)
  --with-zstd-includes=DIRS
  --with-zstd-libs=DIRS   ZSTD library files are in DIRS

On my systems, I always define

configure ... \
   --with-zstd \
  ...
