That's not true. If it is possible to create game levels for it that are

l package managers atleast can aim for something,
instead of shooting in the dark like we do now. The LSB needs to stay

The former is not very conformant to soname schemes, the

those fixes, before spreading ECN, then DaveM might be the only person
