This is the approach I prefer.

That's settled, then. ;)

One other problem -- ldglite needs to search both the unofficial and the
official libraries for files.  Otherwise, we can't be sure we're picking up
the right subfiles.

There's another problem with it too - if the main part file is uploaded before
the sub-parts / primitives, it may display with incorrect older versions, or
none at all. Maybe there needs to be a scan when a sub-part / primitive is
submitted to check if any parts on the tracker already use it, and regenerate
the image if so.

Hey... this is starting to sound like build/make dependency analysis. Any
chance of getting good old "make" itself to do the work of figuring out what
needs to be regenned when a file is uploaded?

The dependency calculation seems straightforward (just scan the file to find
first level dependencies) and the various dirs seem a lot like include path
analysis...
