<div dir="ltr">Ok. Is this requirement documented anywhere? I saw a lot of documentation touting the ability to use Oracle Spatial, blog posts, etc., but never ran across anything in the documentation about instructions for a custom build in order to use this functionality. Also, I found this page:<div>
<br></div><div><a href="https://raw.github.com/qgis/QGIS/master/INSTALL">https://raw.github.com/qgis/QGIS/master/INSTALL</a></div><div><br></div><div>Which contains instructions for doing manual builds, is this the right/best resource for going forward? This guide doesn't include a list of the available build options, are those available somewhere? For instance, when building on a mac environment, several build options were passed to cmake, see the post here:</div>
