The project is licensed under GPL which is not intended for libraries, the LGPL is. The consequence of this is that legally non-GPL open source licensed applications (Like BSD, Apache, MIT, and virtually every open-source license other than GPL) can not use this library as a dependency. This makes it impossible for most projects to use the library at all as a dependency.
