But then you require basically fb2.5 and fb3.0 at runtime, or at least
to convert this. Which is even worse, and either of both might not exist
(anymore)
Well, we require fb2.5 at runtime to run the utility, and fb3.0 at
runtime to run LibreOffice. No executable requires both.
We do require both at build time, if one wants to build both the
utility and libreoffice in the same "make" invocation.
I doubt e.g. Debian will provide both so they can be installed
parallel....
Debian often does so when there are several mutually incompatible file
formats or APIs. E.g. PostgreSQL versions, libdb versions, etc.
