NO, they are not. They are corner stones on which the whole building is built. They have to live up to standards and a user (the inhabitant of the house) may not alter the specs because he/she sees fit. That's not done in the normal world and also not done in a pkg system. The whole pkg system needs dependancies! We have to guard the QUALITY (and maybe quantity) of them but not overrule them as we see fit. -- Dick Hoogendijk -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE +http://nagual.nl/ | SunOS 10u7 05/09 ZFS+
