What's the idea behind the 'flavor' configuration keyword in pungi

basically... what the heck is a flavor :)
With Fedora 7, we're introducing a targetted spin idea, that is a compose of
the packages for a particular target, like Desktop. In order to signify what
target a given spin is for, I introduced the flavor argument, which as you
noted, will append the flavor to the path. This way you can have the same
topdir but with many different flavors. It is purely optional though, if no
flavor is specified, it will not be used.
ahh... i c. thanks for the explanation... makes perfect sense.
btw, if flavor is not specified, a lot of portions break, i'll
investigate better and send
a patch.
