Well, I've found a reference to "libibpp" when trying to repackage gambas2 (in particular, the gb.db.firebird component, which provides firebird accessibility to gambas projects). So I've just decided to make this package: I think it's simpler having common files in separate packages (I don't agree with Olivier's statement below). > When packaging flamerobin, I talked to Olivier (IBPP lead developer) > and his preference was not to make IBPP a separate *library* package, > but simply continue to include it in the applications' source (as > flamerobin does). Your package is not a library one, but still, did you > talk to upstream stating your intention to package IBPP? Well, not, I didn't talk to Olivier (or anybody else).
