[Zlib-devel] [PATCH] Add an --enable-demos option to contrib/minizip/configure

[Jonathan Nieder]

This makes build-testing and installing the minizip/miniunzip programs
as simple as "autoreconf -if && ./configure --enable-demos && make &&
make install".  Without --enable-demos, the makefile will only build
and install the library, as before.  Helped by Mike Frysinger.

minizip/miniunzip were not intended to be general-purpose installed
utilities, but they can be useful from time to time as a lightweight
substitute for zip/unzip.  You can also use them to quickly test that
the library installation procedure worked.

Thanks.  Here's patch against develop that lets "make" and "make install"
build and install them when and only when requested with --enable-demos.
