Oh well, find_package() is just a helper for the package option. The multi-root option is to make it easier to add extra packages (like a third party package incuded in the distro) Now for the package_dir, option, I wouldn't mind removing it. I have always hated it too. If we just kill it, people will just have to provide packages relative to the root, I am +1 to remove package_dir > > -- Tarek Ziadé | http://ziade.org _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
