Summary: Review Request: emacs-muse https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=181404 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-04-25 14:03 EST ------- My feeling is that, while what Akira is suggesting has merit, what it's ultimately an attempt to do is to bend rpm to deal with installation from source (.el) rather than binary.. it's not so dissimilar to gentoos ebuilds etc. It really seems like trying to get rpm to do things it wasn't designed to do. I'm in favour of keeping things simple, working with binary packages, and not aiming for the canonical solution. Pragmatically though, we can't move to using a emacsen-common like approach until someone steps forward to do the necessary work, and I can't really see that happening unless the solution is applicable to more than emacs lisp packages. [On a tangent though, if there was a mechanism for installing an rpm of source files (be they .el, python modules, C, or whaterver) and having builds triggered by installation of other packages, that'd be a really nice way to install a kernel module package that autobuilt every time the kernel was updated. However, again this is clearly a different model than rpm was designed for as it's based on sources management, not binaries. I suppose Conary might have capability akin to this] -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
