Thank you for raising that issue.
I have indeed several small libraries, mostly single files, to package.
Most of them are dependencies of another package i'm preparing.

Why doesn't it really make any sense to package each of them separately ?

What would be the criteria to decide that several small libraries better be
distributed as a single package ?

Jérémy.
