Quoting Kees Cook <inkscape@...62...>:
I am generally against putting external libraries into source trees. They have a tendency to bitrot very very badly. If it can be done in such a way that the separation between inkscape and the lib is clear, and any changes made to it are sent to the upstream, then I guess it's okay. I still think it's dangerous. :)
Well, a problem is that its maintainer is AWOL, as far as I can tell (no activity on the libcroco list for a LONG, long time...). Nobody to push patches to.
