I take back what I said in the previous comment. Tcl currently does _not_ have multilib issues, because arch-dependent extensions are installed outside of Tcl's install directory, and into /usr/lib or /usr/lib64 as appropriate. Bug #227200 is a metakit packaging bug, not a Tcl bug. Once the Tcl packaging guidelines are accepted (Tcl 8.5 timeframe?) then extensions will be installed in Tcl's /usr/%{_lib}/tcl8.x directory, but this will be an arch-specific directory and there still shouldn't be any multilib issues. I'm calling this merge review done and hope that we can address some of the package loading optimizations for Fedora 8, even if it's before Tcl 8.5 is released. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
