• Merge pull request #1 from cottsay/master Fix Fedora build errors
• Move default affordances values into source file I really couldn\'t tell you exactly why this was failing builds on 32-bit Fedora, but in any case this fixes it.
• Build message_lib only after message generation On faster machines, the makefile generated by cmake will thread quite a lot, and will attempt to compile messages_lib before the header files have been generated, failing the build. This will force make to wait for the message generation to complete.
