True. I probably need to have some other command for "recalculate," but deleting build.dep should be enough for those times when you svn up and there is something new.

(by the way, Cmake guys: can you do out-of-place compiling? :-)

On Win32 you can just delete the four files generated by btool (build.dep, config.h, inkscape_version.h and compile.lst) and the either delete or rename the inkscape directory, and then run btool again, and it will only recompile the changed modules and their deps. I don't think I would do that if I changed the devlibs in between, and I still do a clean build fairly often, but many fewer 1hr waits to test.
For more info, see http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Win32Port - I've put in some more detail there.
