That makes sense. It's a pity that pkgbuild doesn't [yet] support parametric macros, so that all other actions could be derived from a generic %action macro. > One of the things ips is talking about supporting eventually are custom > actions, so it really won't do to have specific keywords for these things. Is there an RFE I can Cc myself on? (Actually, please feel free to Cc me on pkg bugs/rfes that may be interesting for a build system, especially ones that affect the manifest syntax or semantics) Thanks, Laca
