possible to build without glib dependency?

[Pan, Tony]

Hi,
We are trying to build openslide on a national lab supercomputer running specialized version of linux.   Looking at the list of dependent libraries, I am concerned about glib, especially given the trouble we've had building from source OpenSlide and glib on our in-house test cluster running centOS (as practice to building on the supercomputer).  The other dependencies have been straight forward to deal with.

What is glib used for in openslide?  Is there a way to avoid the glib dependency?

Thank you for your help.

Tony Pan
