I wonder what is wrong with Makefiles and sed or some other templating / macro packages that already are in our distribution. Inventing new package (which will become a BuildRequires dependency) for such a simple task seems to be unnecessary. It also makes the learning / adoption curve more steep. Can you provide some reasoning what the target features of the tool should be and why they cannot be put together with existing tools? -- Jan Pazdziora Senior Software Engineer, Satellite Engineering, Red Hat _______________________________________________ Spacewalk-devel mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/spacewalk-devel
