One of the big things about adjusting the name lengths, was that we were finally going to have exact parity between PKG name, and 'catalog name', from now on. If you feel so strongly about the 1 char inequality for perl packages, then perhaps instead you should adjust the perl naming spec so that instead of pm_xxxx CSWpmxxxx it now becomes pm_xxx CSWpm-xxx Then you once again have full parity between catalog and PKG name. Plus it looks cleaner anyway. *and* matches what we are doing in other areas, such as python module naming. _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
