I'm not sure I follow your logic here...?
Well, I'm guessing perhaps there is a package out there which only
contains ONE RPM (and maybe located in RPMS/rhl9) and every other distro
uses that same RPM). If that's the case and if you nuke rhl9 support
from generic-setup, then essentially that package will no longer work on
any distro.
That's why we need to convert all packages to use generic-setup, so that
they use the distro/<distro>-<arch> directory structure and also use
generic-setup as opposed to "setup" in scripts/.
Ok, I think I understand what you're saying now; thanks.
I *think* it was only listing "rh9" if you were actually on a RedHat 9
system, so I don't think we're in any danger, but someone should double
check the original code just to be sure (Erich...?).
