Following the precedent set by perl, python, and ruby, I've drafted a
set of proposed guidelines for Tcl packages.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/MichaelThomas/Tcl
The main motivation behind these guidelines is
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=226893
These proposed guidelines will require changes to most of the existing
Tcl extensions in Fedora, as the installation directory for
arch-specific packages will need to be changed from %{_libdir} to
%{_libdir/tcl8.x. Since Tcl was recently upgraded from 8.4 to 8.5a5 in
rawhide, this seemed like a suitable time to make such changes.
I'd like to get any feedback on this proposal before I submit it to the
Fedora packaging committee, hopefully in time so that the changes can be
made before the F7 release.
