Could you explain how these two data sets relate to each other? Is swe-standard-data a strict subset of swe-extrapolated-data? If so I would say make swe-extrapolated-data depend on swe-standard-data. Or are the two packages have some data in common and some unique data in each of them? If so I would split the data up into three sets, swe-core-data/swe-standard-data/swe-extrapolated-data. In terms of git repositories, I would only put the debian/ dirs in git. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
