In fact there's only one README file. It describes all four packages, and is placed separately into each package. I could symlink some of them in order to make that clearer (and save a few bytes)-- for example, linking the ploticus and libploticus READMEs to the one in ploticus-common, since they both depend on it. Easy to do, if you think that's better. > You're only providing a static libploticus.a. Doesn't ploticus also > support building and linking against a shared lib? No, it doesn't AFAICT. A.
