I completely agree with that. I am perfectly fine with that. My only point is that, when a package *IS* split off into its own subprefix, it should at least be consistent about actually Being In The Sub-Prefix. Any deliberation about "*Should* package X have its own subprefix?" is completely free from any entanglement with "du", in my book. _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
