Packages are not free. That'd be a mess to maintain. You don't want
that. Trust me. Not that many packages. The metadata would be larger
than the script.
I think the metadata size is not an issue with current servers and hard
disks (I expect less than 1 Mb in size), however I fully agree that
maintainance and version control IS an issue with that many packages.
Custom RAs and modifications belong into a separate provider directory,
not by mangling the ones in heartbeat/ or pacemaker/!
That's what the provider concept is _for_, so you don't have to fear
that overwriting.
BTW, we also found it doesn't really happen. People don't update just
parts of the stack; they apply all updates. Otherwise, you also end up with a
support mess.
I did oversee that possibility - using a seperate provider is of course
the better way to solve this.
