Who wants to maintain a separate fork of a bunch of libraries just because
there might be someone in the future who wants to develop with a piece of
non-free software that they don't even have personally? Not me, certainly.
So if this is a chicken and egg conflict, I am siding with the chicken.
More eggs doesn't always mean more chickens - it usually just means more
omelette.
It would be interesting to know, though, what changes you have done to
these libraries to justify doing such a fork, as opposed to giving a list
of libraries and version numbers that are known to work?
