Not currently, AFAICT. See my initial mail.

I might have missed something, but I don't see any dependency in any cddl/ directory on those libs. There's the possibility that a dependency might appear in the future, but after the death of OpenSolaris, I think it's more likely that FreeBSD project uses their own libraries to fulfill new requirements (such as they did with libelf and libdwarf in ctfutils). > Thing is we /call/ this libzfs, but most of them are really completely > unrelated to ZFS.

But they are in FreeBSD to satisfy build dependencies, not with a generic purpose. -- Robert Millan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
