I was involved in creating RPMs once and when I proposed to add >1000 of NetBeans packages into the distro, the packagers freaked out. Thus we ended up with one RPM package per cluster. My original proposal for NetBeans packaging is still available and not much outdated: https://openide.netbeans.org/proposals/arch/clusters.html - this approach has also been used when building the packages for debian: https://packages.debian.org/experimental/netbeans - see libnb-platform18, etc. Why not follow the same style? > > succeeds fine.

We can adjust the build scripts to suite the packaging needs, but duplicating the build logic isn't something I consider sane. -jt
