Hi Laurent, It seems that only two packagers (Ralf Corsepius and Michael Schwendt) have registered objections to the /usr/include/CORE location. And they both point out that its a matter of good taste, not a hard-and-fast rule that drives their reasoning [0]. If you can make the package work [1] with /usr/include/CGAL/CORE then I think that satisfies everyone. If not, you can go with the majority opinion and use /usr/include/CORE [2]. Ed [0] I think Ralf and Michael generally have very good taste in packaging decisions -- but who am I to judge? :-) [1] In addition to Ralf's comment you can also get includes by setting things like: export CPPFLAGS=-I%{_includedir}/CGAL/CORE or by editing the Makefile-s. [2] It can be difficult to try and make everyone happy all the time. ;-) -- Edward H.
