Nick Wellnhofer commented on CLOWNFISH-60:
------------------------------------------
bq. The benefit of not bundling is you don't have to care about the bundled
code. The issue is that those who bundle usually don't care, so the result is
myriad of broken code at different versions behaving differently bundled
everywhere. This is unmaintainable.
Why would anyone care which version of lemon is bundled with the Lucy source
code? We only use lemon in our build process and make sure that the version we
bundle works for our needs. This results in a bit of maintenance burden, but
there's no other way to support out-of-the-box builds on platforms like Windows
or for automated testing.
> Use system lemon if possible
