Hi folks: I would like to update zsh (the Z shell) packages to the recent 5.0.0 release.
Also, a few years ago, when multibyte support was offered, I created a second package. At this point enabling the multibyte feature isn't experimental, and Apple's own zsh 4.3.11 has this enabled by default, so it is kind of silly not to do this with Fink's 5.0.0 package. So I would like to merge the two packages and remove zsh-multibyte.info. Any objections? Just to be certain, I also checked on the zsh mailing list, and got the following reply: > }Currently we have two packages, > } differing only in being compiled with or without multibyte support.
