So, are these > renamed executables needed in package? If not, we can make package without them. It doesn't hurt to have them, though. For example one would want to test the debian install-info in parallel with the fedora texinfo one. It would be harder to have dpkg use them during package install, but so far installation of packages using dpkg isn't possible. Also most of them are perl script so people can look at them, which is nice. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
