Greetings, I have been following the development of Exherbo for a while and written a few packages, my name is Gaute Hope and I am norwegian. That should be the necessarry facts.
You probably noticed that I was asking the same thing on #exherbo yesterday, but I still haven't gotten it all clear; the problem is: I write a few packages and in addition to generic options like X, sdl or so on; I also want to include a few more obscure ones. According to Exheres for smarties I shouldn't really do this, and leave them to their defaults. What I want to do is to add these options, but let them be on by default, if '-flag' doesn't exist in options.conf. That way the user wouldn't have to manually turn on features that 90% of the users would want anyway. And the user who doesn't want it, doesn't have to create a new exheres. ciarnm spoke of existing mechanisms for this, but I cannot find them - if they do.. consider this void and a pointer in the right direction would be appreciated. - gaute _______________________________________________ Exherbo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.exherbo.org/mailman/listinfo/exherbo-dev
