Any objections? Not really objections but some thoughts. We have two problems, a short term one (we can't easily move marble dependency in a plugin) and a long term one (adding new dependency to the libs). I will give my thought on each.
== we can't easily move marble dependency in a plugin for 2.4 So the choice seems to be between remove the support for map or depend on marble for 2.4. So we need to consider what is better for users, map support or no dependency on marble ? I tend to lean that the first one is better, and anyway it is an optional dependency. == adding new dependency to the libs I think we should set as a golden rule "no new external dependency in kolibs, unless agreed on the lists, but it is highly recommended to make sure that external dependencies are put into a plugin. -- Cyrille Berger Skott _______________________________________________ calligra-devel mailing list calligra-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/calligra-devel
