Hi,
Some time ago we made libubiio available at :
http://git.iksaif.net/?p=libubiio.git;a=summary
I wanted to know how it can be used in mtd-utils, so we can start
making patch for inclusion into mtd-utils.
The first thing I see is mkfs.ubifs, using libubiio we will be able to
run mkfs on an ubi volume. I believe it's
simpler than creating a image, and using other tools to write it to the volume.
Where can libubiio be used ?

Another question, do you use static Makefiles for a reason ? Maybe we
could move to CMake ?
Thanks
