Hello
The bug which is keeping us with popt has been recently fixed. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=722025
This means we can remove several kb of code and remove one of our dependencies by changing command line parsing from popt to GOption.
Since the bug was Windows-specific, we can do this once the next stable version of glib is released.
Regards, Krzysztof

Great, I love removing code.

Should we have a low priority bug report to track this issue and hopefully not forget to do it?
Martin,
Awesome... Is the fix backportable to devlibs before the new Glib release or would this be a terrible pain?

The fix seems to be backportable (just the patches in the bug), but requires rebuilding glib, and this might be a little difficult since it requires libffi.

OK... maybe we should just wait for the glib release then. Is there a ticket open for this in the devlibs bug tracker?
