Wrapping up a legacy-crap-C library doesnt really help. You can write
wrappers for c++
libraries too, you know. There is absolutely NO reason to still use old C in
a new project.
Also experience shows that wrappers are unpopular because they have to be
maintained
and suffer from the C-code below it. So If you write it in C its going to be
used from the C
interface. No matter how "easy" ir is to write wrappers.
Of course I can not stop you from polluting the environment with more poor
and primitive
C libraries, but dont expect anyone to use it (especially from the KDE
camp)!
Hear from you soon in the insecurity-news.
