Depends on glib

luke-jr opened this issue · comments

Unreasonable and completely unnecessary dependency

Hmm I think it is not on Windows, at least I have never heard of glib. Maybe on Linux through boost? Any hint on how we can get rid of this dependency?

Anyone happen to know what code is relying on glib?

Personally I'd rather see effort get spent on rebasing on a current codebase rather than worrying about noncritical issues with legacy code.

@luke-jr Could you elaborate?

This affects Linux only. It has to do with the -l gthread-2.0 \ lines in src/Makefile. Removing those lines seems to have no adverse effect on the operation of either Namecoin-qt or namecoind.

Thanks @josephbisch . Can anyone else confirm that removing it doesn't affect anything?
