Yes. an "issue" which has been re-affirmed by multiple people recently, not just me (at summer camp, I believe?) as worthwhile for us to support. So, lets *support* it, not keep bringing back, "should we support it?" every time some effort is needed? I'll also say the effort required is not colossal here. > And after seeing all these > issues with the rewrite the big question is: is it worth it? I will point out that some of "these issues" have nothing to do with the rewrite, but more about hokie behaviour with pkgadd across global/non-global zones. So yes, it most certainly is. Any new implementation of something is going to have bugs. The criteria should not be "does it have bugs", but "is it maintainable, and can it meet our customer needs better than other solutions?" The answer to the latter, is clearly "yes, and yes". _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
