Hi Raphaël,

Hello,

Thanks for the clarification, this occurred because I downloaded another
file that does not contain the bundled libraries [1]. Unlike the file you
used [2].

Do you think it is valid to package these auxiliary and support libraries?

If they were used by other projects, yes. But here those libraries
are made by the same author and for his own project only.

Given the large number of libraries, it would only add busy work for no
gain so I'd rather not package them separately.

To be honest, many of those libraries smell the NIH syndrome[1] and should
not exist in the first place IMO.

I hastened and created the libcerror project [1], sorry.
Could you please delete it?
