Comment(by leif):

 Replying to [comment:42 drkirkby]:
 > I think doing this in practice will be fraught with difficulty. The
 actual files installed might even depend on platform. (For example, shared
 libraries on HP-UX are .sl not .so). In general the files might depend on
 the value of environment variables. I think it's just best to not try to
 do that.

 Well, we have {{{rm -f}}} and (not only) filename globbing. In case we
 later run into problems (e.g. when upstream gets updated), ''you'' 're to
 blame (and you'll have to solve it)... So I won't mind omitting it now.

 > I think it was a bad idea of mine, and one not worth revisiting.

 Most spkgs do that.

 I've attached my second reviewer patch which I would really like to see
 merged, too. :-)

 I'll set this to "positive review" if you (and Peter) are ok with my
 changes (either both or just my first reviewer patch).
