Can I programmatically copy vi within llb AND build an application?

I previously posted the question how to programmatically work (copy, delete) on files within llbs and got two answers to use the librarian vis in vi.lib > utility > libraryn.llb

That works really good but only till I try to build an application. The application builder seems to use the librarian vis also and complains that it cannot build an application with vis that are currently in use...

Any idea how to solve that?

Make a copy of all the VIs used by the librarian and save them under a
different name (making sure to link the sub-VIs to the new name of course.
Awkward, but it should work.

Yeah, it's really awkward 😞 but it really works :-))

Close all VIs before you launch the application builder.

I guess it's kind of tricky to close the application builder before building an application?
