Thanks Sophie. > Compiling the latest RC1 for the Linux distribution "Chakra", I noticed > there is a list of distro's in the code, that are supported for branding > libreoffice. Riight - so this is something we are trying to cut out of the picture; we don't really want lots of branding images in the repositories; these really belong in vendor packages I think - with some nice configure option to use them. As regards the distro config/ files - there is some merit in centralising these I guess (as/when we change defaults it can help); but its not clear to me that there needs to be so much diversity among them [ usually people want different levels of 'use system libfoo' tweaking ]. So - I'd say - probably best to to put the artwork in; keep it in your .spec file / build wrappers; [ and help us make that easier with better configure options perhaps ? - patches most welcome ]; we are also working to deprecate the build/ top-level (with distro specific patches etc.) such that all of that is flattened into the main tree, with conditionals (as appropriate). Does that make sense ? Perhaps other devs have different views - this is mostly Rene's world :-) anyhow - do post patches to the freedesktop dev list :-) Glad you're packaging LibreOffice ! and great to have you on board.
