I don't disagree with the logic. But unfortunately, if you did this for a package that already existed and that some other package already depended on, then everybody's installations would break unless you got all maintainers of the other packages to upgrade them at exactly the same time you upgraded.
In the case of libpng, there were more than 40 packages that depended on it. I've managed to get some of them changed, but a lot of them will be waiting until the maintainers have time. If we had made this change a long time ago, we would have been able to use more logical names. -- Dave _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
