[ Follow-ups to -policy. ] I have proposed on -policy a build-time dependency mechanism. If you're interested in this matter, please join the discussion on -policy.
I'm especially interested in input from maintainers of complex packages, such as X, GNU Libc and others, and from porters. The text of the proposal is available at <URL:http://master.debian.org/~ajk/proposal.txt>, and the proposal is tracked by bug #41232. [Ob-Devel-Announce: If the proposal is accepted, it will affect most Debian packages, so it is only fair to let all maintainers know of that possibility.] -- %%% Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho % [EMAIL PROTECTED] % http://www.iki.fi/gaia/ %%% "... memory leaks are quite acceptable in many applications ..."
