Hehe, but you're thinking in terms of today's rpm. Discussing stuff with Jeff at the FOSDEM this week-end, he already has a way of dealing with this well known limitation, which (from what I've understood) would basically be a "pre everything" approach. A similar "post everything" approach and a little magic could also nicely solve the icon caches, mime types, menus etc. performance problems. Which is why I didn't say "never", but "anytime soon" ;-) Matthias -- Clean custom Red Hat Linux rpm packages : http://freshrpms.net/ Fedora Core release 6 (Zod) - Linux kernel 2.6.19-1.2895.fc6 Load : 0.29 0.29 0.21 -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
