Description
Section 5.1 of the Getting Start Guide indicates:
Also, consider using the --show-libraries and --with-libraries= options to limit the long wait you'll experience if you build everything.
The actual option for specifying a specific library should be:
{{{--with-<library>}}
For example, --with-date_time
This might be what is meant in the text; however, it is a confusing. We see questions about this at least once a week on IRC. A simple example in the text may clear it up.
