Comment 24 for bug 1961427

@xnox Well, initially I was also a bit puzzled noticing that not the standalone htslib is used, but an embedded htslib in bedtools.
But this is also upstream the case and htslib is not the only component that is bundled:
$ ls ./src/utils/
BamTools BlockedIntervals fileType lineFileUtilities tabFile
BamTools-Ancillary chromsweep general NewChromsweep ToolBase
bedFile Contexts GenomeFile Point VectorOps
bedFilePE driver gzstream RecordOutputMgr version
bedGraphFile Fasta htslib sequenceUtilities
BinTree FileRecordTools KeyListOps stringUtilities
And solving the situation for all of these will be a nighmare with a high risk of introducing problems on top and more difficulties on maintaining and making sure that the components are in place in the correct version ...
