I am just wondering how this would work. In general, this would require all the libraries to be built together. I don’t think libraries individually can provide components.
It doesn't require all the libraries to be built together and, yes, libraries can provide components. See this talk:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eH4hMKl7XE <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eH4hMKl7XE>
Sorry, that was worded poorly. Rather a library can not add additional components to a previously installed library(not without some strange hackery).
