Re: [DLG-dev] Strange file name in index files

[Eugen W. <bel...@gm...>]

It is a "meta" package, package containing everything else in the index
file. It was all the time there since PK is used as the installer. I put it
into the index file to
1) make it easy to rename this package if needed
2) maybe support multiple meta packages (for example for different groups,
like gnome-games, gnome-office and so on).
3) minimize hard corded stuff in the PK backend for particular repositories
and make the backend more general.
