Actually, I did mention it (though indirectly I admit): At 0:19 Uhr +0100 15.02.2002, Max Horn wrote: >For splitoffs (and also for variants), we simply created additional >hash entries, each represneting the splitoff/variant package. What is meant here is exactly what you ask for above - we create entries in the package list for each splitoff package. This means it will list them on "fink list", and "fink info" will work, too. >Still thinking this through, will have more comments later. Sure thing.
