I am not enthusiastic about etc-alternatives, I find it a better solution than individual per-package symlink-creation scripts. As of vim case, user preference (and per-system default) is solvable using $EDITOR. The problem is that default setting of EDITOR=vim used in some packages requires installation of _some particular_ package to work and I think this is the reason for the symlink idea. -- Jakub Bogusz http://qboosh.pl/ _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list [email protected] http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
