I am not talking about device detection here, I am just concerned that we will have loads of packages (source packages) done in different way for configuration files. Instead, we should group such configuration in one package and create sub-packages for the specific devices with the corresponding file. this way, configuration for policy in meego is found in one package and not multiple packages all over the place which might run out of sync.
The hw/device detection issue is well known and is on a different level....
