well, one point to take into consideration is that glib and gobject are actually seperate shared libs, but as you point out, all sane systems will have this installed anyway (mainly as hal is dependant on them). > Those building customized systems probably anyways build with > --without-glib, so they wouldn't benefit from a separate sofia-glib > library. Indeed, Ok, so is it a matter of adding a seperate glib directory in there? or should this actually go into nua?
