Would be nice to have indeed, but it needs more polishing until it is ready for EXWM.

I would greatly appreciate if the Enchant 2 C api could be kept as is, such that existing software can seamlessly upgrade to Enchant 3. It will probably also help...

Great, thanks! Maybe if the APIs were mostly compatible and if I could detect the version with some ENCHANT_VERSION macro, I could support both versions 2 and 3 at the...

> I think the current support for parallel installation is sufficient For my purpose it would be a little better if I had the ability to detect the version directly...

I plan to use a different approach. I will not request a version, I will take whatever I get (2 or 3) to support as many installs as possible. Then...

The problem is this - compilation does not always go through pkgconf/pkg-config. Sometimes people compile manually and then things get more complicated. Right now I also check the Enchant version...

Yes, I don't doubt that you did your best. But why not simply add a `#define ENCHANT_VERSION` macro? This is a pattern found in many C libraries.

No, this is not the case as I told you. I don't necessarily control the build process. But anyway, you don't want to, so be it.

No. I understood your point, perfectly in fact. But you are not seeing what I am trying to tell you. You are looking at it from the "sane perspective" of...
