Noooooo! Please. From a packaging point of view, that's not practical and desirable. We don't want users to download hundreds of packages only to realize that they barely need 2 out of 100 to build their stuff. And on top of that, they have 98 redundant package on their box which they do not use. What you don't need, you don't load! No bloat. :) And we also don't want users to *jam* the repo by trying to download useless packages. -- With kind regards, Didier. ------------ Yum/apt repository for DR17/EFL: http://sps.nus.edu.sg/~didierbe Didier F.B Casse PhD candidate, Singapore Synchrotron Light Source (SSLS) National University of Singapore. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
