As part of relearning C I wanted to find a lightweight library (so not

equivalent in Debian.
 Is this a reasonable choice? If not, what would you recommend?

I've never hear of it, but from a very quick look I'd say: no.
They seem to be trying to write C++ code in C. If you want C++, use C++.

 I want a generic (int/str/custom struct) set, map, ordered map, vector.

I think this is better (I've never used it, but Jacob does know what he's doing): https://github.com/jacob-navia/ccl
Really though, roll your own. It'll be a good exercise for relearning C.
