Description Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-07-11 15:05:15 UTC
Description of problem:

I would like to be able to turn on LogSet in my installer.

See also 
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Docs/Chapter4.html#4.9.12.1

There doesn't seem to be any significant drawback in turning this option on by default, the log will not be set by default, but the installer size may be increased by 4k.

Your proposed specfile patch is most definitely NOT OK, the option should be added to the sconsopts macro instead, if we want it at all.

But I'm not convinced we actually want this option. It's not the default upstream, probably because of the size increase it forces on everyone, even those not using logging (and you appear to be the first one trying to use that feature).

I am no longer interested in NSIS (I wrote a wix/msi tool instead),closing
