Added: trunk/BOOK/general/genlib/mcs.xml trunk/BOOK/general/genlib/mowgli.xml Removed: trunk/BOOK/general/sysutils/mcs.xml Modified: trunk/BOOK/general.ent trunk/BOOK/general/genlib/genlib.xml trunk/BOOK/general/sysutils/sysutils.xml trunk/BOOK/introduction/welcome/changelog.xml Log: Updated MCS due to the old version being no longer available for download and moved it to General Libraries. Added Mowgli as a dependency. Audacious (the only package that uses MCS) works and can store its configuration in plain files and kconfig. GConf is not tested.
