Hi,

These libraries are also used by gvim, grip and gnucash so we maybe we
should wait for the opinion of Dago and Peter no ?

But basically you are proposing to switch to native libraries for desktop
stuff. I think we should discuss it further because:

  - it probably can't be a per package choice: if you use the native
libraries and if we still provide the same libraries in OpenCSW for other
packages, that would surely lead to some problems,

  - if we use native libraries, I don't think we will be guaranteed to have
the same version on all versions of Solaris (that was one the advantage of
providing our own libraries), so we will have to test and compile on each
version (or restrict packages to a given OS version, that could make sense
to provide a newer version of a software on the oldest OS).

Yann
