previous spkg.
Its a major improvement, not a regression!
> If so, it shouldn't hurt to keep ATLAS installing them either... ;-)
As I explained previously, thats not true. We have to change things to
make them better. But we can't un-link the static linkage that has
happened previously, so when you upgrade from an existing spkg you
potentially keep the old code. And there is nothing a new atlas spkg can
do about this. If you want to be sure that you don't have cruft statically
linked you'll have to do a clean install. This is precisely why it was a
bad idea to install static libraries previously.
