Hi, I understand why upstream did not want to do that, but current situation is not very attractive either. The same piece of library-like code is duplicated in two places in gnome, in cinnamon, and we are talking about duplicating in a fourth place. FPC wants to have it split out and shared. gvc has the last commmit in git 13 months ago. Shouldn't be that much of an issue to split it out.
