I said on IRC that if anybody asked for yet another variant that I'd give maintainership to them. Have fun! <just kidding> I've consdidered it. The implementation is not trivial, since we don't have a hierarchy in the variants (meaning that there's no way to have -nox include -nognome) and so this will require additional conditional statements to handle the third option. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list Fink-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
