Kazakov's Simple Components library in my big serious project (which is to contain a command line utility and a HTTP(S) proxy server). I am to choose of three variants: 1. create a Makefile to build the Simple Components library and link to this library; 2. don't create a library but just include Dmitry's files as a part of my source; 3. just install the Debian package built by Dmitry. The "3" variant has the deficiency that because the Dmitry's package is not in Debian, this may cause difficulty in the future to make my own Debian package of my software. Please help me to choose the best variant. -- Victor Porton - http://portonvictor.org
