Indeed! I already cloned your repo a week ago and it's helping me a lot,
and also without Fan's solutions from it's tutorial on GNOME site my
project would not be possible, so you guys made a great job!

I spend whole night debugging glib test projects and it's dependencies
trying to figure out why test projects do not work and noticed you use
libffi 3.0.13 version, so I replaced 3.1 with 3.0.13, recompiled and some
of the bugs just disappeared, but can't say anything yet until everything
is in place.

OH! sorry, I absolutely missed (did not read) what HexChat is, I see now :)

BTW, I made an initial version of dependency graph yesterday which is based
on Fan's tutorial and graph from your site, and would like to hear what you
guys think about it:

Thank you for your kind responses!
