    Glib us licensed under LGPL. So unless your project is happy with that, it’s as if it didn’t exist. That’s one of the problems of having a small standard library.

      It’s one of the more permissive licenses - who the hell is going to have a problem with lgpl? You can ship it with proprietary applications.
