Dunno, I don't use "various distros". All I know is that Alexander gave an example of *one* package that may need another version of the autotools. To me, hardly a reason to start installing multiple versions of the same package. So, at this point, with Alexander asking for input (RFC is taken as a request for input), I'm choosing to see if we can't work around the issue for the *one* package that needs it. -- Randy rmlscsi: [bogomips 1003.25] [GNU ld version 2.16.1] [gcc (GCC) 4.0.3] [GNU C Library stable release version 2.3.6] [Linux 2.6.14.3 i686] 06:33:00 up 3 days, 13:53, 1 user, load average: 0.20, 0.26, 0.36 -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
