Hi,
this commit also removes Runtime compile on Linux (tested by 2 people on
Linux in IRC).
I have to veto this decision, I find runtime compile quite handy, and
the dependencies are the same.
If people want to compile Blender + CUDA they need the compiler
(gcc/msvc) and the toolkit. So allowing runtime compile is not really
different.
I am happy to answer such reports in the tracker if we will get any if
that is your concern. :)
Best regards,
Thomas
