Proxy, autoclean

[Boey Maun Suang]

Hi Dimitrijs,

> Can I do selfupdate through proxy?

selfupdate uses rsync to connect to an rsync server, so if your  
university proxy allows traffic on port 873, or if you can tunnel  
traffic through your proxy by setting up a proxy on your own machine  
to do it, then you'll be fine.  Otherwise, I think you'll be pretty  
much stuck.

All that autoclean does is to delete the working directory in which  
the port is built, so if speex builds and installs libraries into $ 
{prefix}/lib, they'll still be there if you set autoclean.

Kind regards,
