I think one solution could be have a dummy package (using theHow are variations best handled in fink?
postgresql example)
postgresql depends postgresql-complete | postgresql-cxx |
postgresql-java | postgresql-javaperl | postgres-whatever
then create the different postgresql-xxx packages with the different
configurations
so when you ask fink install postgresql the system ask you which one
to install.
the problem is that ideally you have to create a package for every
possible combination of options and in the case of postgresql the
number is fairly high
Many of these dependencies are buildDepends only, and the different
modules are split into different deb files. When we have a working
binary archive, many people never notice all of the build depends
because they are not building them themselves. In order to have a good
binary archive, the maintainers need feedback to know which packages
can be put in stable. so the quicker we get feedback the quicker and
bigger the binary archive will be :-)
