mqtt without vzlogger is pointless

[J-A-U]

Optional MQTT is part of vzlogger, therefore compilation of vzlogger by install.sh is necessary. #575

[r00t-]

this seems a little confused,
at least it took me some reading of the code to understand what the subject/commit-message is trying to say.

could you mention in the commit message that it only affects install.sh?

also, shouldn't vzlogger just be installed unconditionally? i.e. just remove the condition completely?
(as the same thing ("is pointless without vzlogger") could be said about all other libraries that that script can build.)

(personally i don't like this install.sh thing, it seems weird to include such an attempt of package management, and would rather just remove it - but if it's useful to some users, we can keep it ofcourse.)

I though about that. But don't see a solution that won't break the possibility to do faster updates (without building the libs again).

I'm first row for a better solution and will happily get rid of any mention of install.sh in the wiki if i can replace it with e.g. apt-get.
But only if such a solution is available. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
