that is actually not the case. if you look at the Makefile.am
in ./srclib you will find
install:
echo
echo "Nothing from the srclib directory gets installed"
echo
i was very careful to make sure nothing in srclib get installed to avoid
that very thing you are concerned about: over-writing installed
software.
the library are ./srclib are only used at compile time and not installed
anywhere.
i also think moving to apr-util for XML parsing is a good idea. we do
need to keep in mind though that gmetad hasn't been moved over to libapr
yet and still needs expat.
