Hi Lisandro, I do not really understand what's the problem. The library is linked statically and won't conflict with any other copy in the system. It's small, thus I think the footprint is bearable. And usually it's not installed on other systems. Thus it would be just another lousy dependency to take care of. Especially on Windows and OS X. But even in Linux there are many users that are overexerted by too many dependencies, if it comes to compiling the software on their own.
That's why it is part of the 3rd party libs in QLGT. To move it from there will make life not better just more compicated.
