> I'm not rolling deb's but I am rolling rpm's

In that case I'd be glad if you fixed up my hacked together ugly .spec files 
in the tools cvs module under dist/rpm.

I circumvented the make/install/reconfigure problem you recently mentioned
by just making the spec files grab an installed version from the system
directories, but I'd like it much better, if we had "real" spec files.

Brian: You might want to look how I packaged together things there.

Basically I tried to group by external dependencies.

Same as I did. gg is a helper lib that handles various tasks that are often
used in all the GGI libs,like:

- generic Mutexes (pthread, "hope-for-the-best"-intlocks, dlopened-pthread)
- configuration file parsing
- debug output
- Module loading/freeing, jumping in there
- a bit of memory debugging
- misc helpers (ggGetUserDir, usleep, curtime
- other parsing (options, etc).

You mean includes to -dev - right ?

Yeah - we usually don't install them, except for the cube, but it would be
good. Where does one install such stuff ?
/usr/games and /usr/doc ?

Yeah. Agree. Demos aren't too useful in standard paths. I hate X for doing
that.
