I make (B)LFS systems for "end-user" use. When it comes to optional dependencies, I tend to avoid their installation and maintenance "expense" unless I can see a positive, direct benefit to the end-user experience.
So far I've avoided the GObject Introspection package. It's optional in many of the BLFS packages. I don't see the positive end-user benefit, but I'm getting a vague impression it's an "up and coming" bit of glue that may someday be essential. So I'm wondering if it should "be on my radar" for integration into the "base" if I end up restructuring/rebuilding this system. Can anybody give me information about the roadmap for GI use in "modern" Linux systems? -- Paul Rogers [email protected] Rogers' Second Law: "Everything you do communicates."
