That's why I was raising the question whether providing the autogen'd cpython in the source distribution was a wise choice, since they seem completely useless to me from a packaging standpoint. Nevertheless, looking at some example packages (mmtk and guiqwt), it seems that removing the cpython files is an accepted (acceptable ?) solution. > Kind regards > > Andreas. > > -- > http://fam-tille.de > > Ghislain -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
