I agree, we should provide the wx frontend since it has extra features. > I placed visualboyadvance-m inside the vbam package for quick testing, > but considering it pulls in extra dependencies and is its own thing > it might be cleaner to put it in its own subpackage. I agree, we also provide separate packages in similar cases like mgba and mgba-qt. The hard part :) is what to name the wx package. We shouldn't call it "visualboyadvance-m" after the executable, because nobody looking at the package names will know the difference between the "vbam" and "visualboyadvance-m" packages. So maybe vbam-wxwidgets? > +@tag update-desktop-database > +@tag gtk-update-icon-cache %D/share/icons/hicolor Needs additional RUN_DEPENDS.
