Thanks for the pointer and for the question. A quick scan turned up the following C-ish options: Package: confute - read variables from INI-style configuration files Package: libini-config-dev (from the ding-libs package — think it doesn’t have write support) Other projects include: http://www.compuphase.com/minini.htm (does not appear to be packaged for Debian) http://sourceforge.net/projects/libini (does not appear to be packaged for Debian) http://www.hyperrealm.com/libconfig/libconfig.html (packaged for Debian, but I don’t think it can handle INI files directly) More generally, I would argue that there are several packages that use the API defined by iniParser. It seems more reasonable to package iniParser than to expect that all upstream packages change their INI parsing APIs (or include iniParser by copying the sources, as samba does currently). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
