I understood that, and I wouldn't want that (or any) feature gone just because I don't need it. > If you'd like to convert it to dlopen() similar to how support for X.Org > is implemented, this dependency can certainly be dropped, but I'm not > sure if this feature is worth the effort... I have looked into the sources and not yet found out how it's done there. Actually, I'm not even sure I found the right feature yet. All I do know is there is no direct occurrence of "dlopen" in the sources. As I find time, I might look into it more. If anyone else wants to have a go, I won't be unhappy either. Neither would I be about a decision to drop this feature, although I might be happier about it being extended to other filesystems as well (with the necessary libs being dlopen()ed on demand).
