[oi-dev] Issue 5277 and dependencies on Studio C++ libraries

[Adam Števko]

Hi,

Generally I think that we should drop Studio once and for all as soon as possible. I guess that we are the last distribution around, which depends on Studio.

However, there are few things to consider:
1) Is everything compilable with g++?
2) How many packages are using Studio?
3) How much effort is needed to fully drop Studio?

Cheers,
Adam
