Yes, it has only the dbus interface definition, only #defines. Also I think there was a circular build dependency at one point which was solved by this separation (this doesn't apply in meego). IMHO it would be good it they would be combined under single source again. > > Exactly, also I'm curious why such package has different version than mce > > source tar ball? It's a interface, which is stable compared to mce internals. It would be clearer if the versions matched, but it seems silly to push new versions only to change the version number. > >> since mcd-devel only has headers, I would propose to call the package > >> mce-headers, since -devel package are usually sub-packages of a main > >> package, > >> just to avoid confusion. I'd be happy to use -headers if that is the consensus. Then I might wonder why other -devel packages with only headers are not renamed to -headers. -- Tapio Rantala _______________________________________________ MeeGo-packaging mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-packaging
