Hi,

after some longish debate with Daniel Taupin (where I complained about
some packaging issues) I finally noticed that the aforementioned tar.gz
file isn't authorized at all by the maintainer. He officially just
supports the zip version of his distribution.

Not exactly: I provide the source files in a zip file, and I do not disagree with other fellow transforming it into a tar.gz, and adding any executable version of musixflx.c for all possible computers.

While a separate version customized for Unix like operating systems is a quite good idea, I propose the following:

(1) More coordination. Why should the zip file contain a different
directory structure and additional redundancy (which I complained about
to Daniel -- sorry, Daniel!)? The redundancy I mean is the additional
system/c-sources directory only containing files already located
elsewhere.

(2) When a different distribution is really needed, please document it:

(a) There should be a README file or similar describing the archive as a
derived package
(b) The package should even get a new name (I assume the "T" in T112
means "Taupin"?), at least slightly different

T = Taupin, exact.

Thanks for considering.


bye,
  Roland
