I've always thought that comps is just an ugly extra layer that only adds more work and indirection, and few if any benefits. So, I welcome this suggestion. Of course, as with all extra layers, once it is there, it tends to accrete random functionality. As others have pointed out in this thread, comps has things such as the (still mysterious to me) environment groups, and some translated strings. I don't think any of the examples that were mentioned so far would make me go "yes, we should really have an xml file look-aside somewhere to hold this functionality". -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
