> The fact the Windows apps "fix" it by maintaining their own dependencies completely isolated from system-level libraries isn't exactly what I'd call a great solution. Sadly ran into an issue with this today. A program I wanted to use I guess forgot to ship the dependencies in the provided binaries of most recent version. I could maybe track them down, but many of not all of them would have to be built from source, which I’d rather not bother with.
