IMO no because the primary purpose of "SUNWastdev" is to deliver the AST development tools to /usr/ast/bin/ and not become the dumping ground for everything which may be related to AST development. It's a choice for the long term (looking at the next five or ten years) since I don't like to move things around later (which only consumes lots of time and paperwork). I'd like to pick the correct (and hopefully final) resting place for the binaries in the first attempt without 666 followups to get things moved (the choice of "SUNWCdev" was more or less picked for the same reason (and to make sure the build machines have that package, otherwise gatekeepers+build machine admins may demand my head on a stick if this causes problems...). However I have no strong feeling about the "SUNWCdev" choice since we could (AFAIK) make "SUNWonbld" depend on "SUNWastdev" to archive the same goal). ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) [EMAIL PROTECTED] \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 7950090 (;O/ \/ \O;) _______________________________________________ opensolaris-code mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/opensolaris-code
