I don't think this is really a comparable situation, as we don't put /usr/local before system paths for library searches, but we *do* by default for PATH. I think this really highlights a problem with packaging dynamic language stacks overall. Are they being packaged to support applications in the distribution proper? Or, are they being packaged to support end-user development and applications? Right now, our answer is "everything at once", and that leads to friction. Remi, the Modularity answer here would be to automatically (that is, with one command and from one spec file) build the packages for different bases. Would this address your concerns? -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ packaging mailing list -- packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to packaging-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
