libubiio use code from mtd-utils and UBI, so it's not realy a
"completely unrelated code base".

Makefile are simple, but so is CMake. Adding a new shared library is
as simple as that :

add_library(ubiio SHARED libubiio.c)
set_target_properties (ubiio PROPERTIES VERSION 0.1 SOVERSION 0)

But I understand is a big dependence to add.

Ok, I just wanted to know.

I'll see what can I do with that.
