Expressing what (I think) is the same intenet, but paraphrased: Debian/Python people seem to have a convention of calling packages "python-foo" if it provides a library "foo", or just calling the package "foo" if it provides an application or utility called "foo". In the case of packages which provide both (e.g. docutils), I think the packager maintainer decides which is more "important" out of the library or the app/utility. So it is "gtk2hs" not "haskell-gtk2hs" because it provides a utility (right?) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
