I don't claim anything. I just use the package manager to search for the packages and they are not there. > In Open Source it's still the packager who more > or less decides what he/she wants to package (or risk) Indeed, and since *my* approach was mentioned, I just described it, and my own evaluation of my own risk.

My approach has nothing to do with Hugin's level or size. It has to do with my own personal situation. Yours might vary. > Their lawyers ONLY look at their commercial interests and risks and > not to the (non interesting and risk less) GPL, open source "no bugs > generating" part of it. Indeed their lawyers (and they as companies) look at their commercial interests and risks first (not only). But make no mistakes, they also look at the GPL and other open source licenses which do not exclude commerce. In fact, there are many viable business models that thrive on the GPL and other open source licenses. > I am however a fan of Ippei's plugin solution as it gives the packager > the flexibility and possibility to deliver a hugin and their > accompanying plugins from one single webpage, but not as one package. > This keeps it save (next to making it more flexible for the packager > to create hugin svn packages and occasionally do a CP plugin upgrade). I am a fan of Ippei's plugin solution too (based on desk research, I have not had access to OS X in more than a month and so I could not try it out). I've spelled out earlier this morning how and why I would like to plug in different CP generators in different stitching projects.
