The gsweb fragments that are part of -make are actually "infrastructure" fragments which are different from the "convenience" fragments I'm currently talking about. In face gsweb, when installed, installs it's own set of "convenience" fragments. The "infrastructure" fragments deal with special types of "wrappers" called components (WO/GSWCompoents) which need to be installed/uninstalled in the correct places. As far as I know, -make currently does not support "Auxiliary" "infrastructure" make file fragments. I'm not sure if it should since I believe you need to know a lot about -make's internals to maintain them. On the other hand I understand that it's a burden for Nicola since he needs to be aware of what these special wrappers are and how they should be handled. But in the end, I believe that the "infrastructure" might be tied much closer to the overall -make (i.e. FHS) logic, that I simply isn't feasible to export that logic to external packages... Nicola, what do you think? Cheers, David _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
