On a binary system, you'd simply never be able to replace directfb or
anything that includes it - keep em around forever.
My point was that as soon as you start getting into dynamic libs, you
need a system of keeping track of what libs are installed, which apps
use them, if its safe to update them, and when you install an app, you
have to be sure the dependant libs are there, so you need an installer
instead of just copying the .app or .prg. So, you have something like
the RPM database or the Windows registry to record it all and get
corrupted. Do ATARI users really want all that? Is it all worth it?
Is there a better way?
