Just stating the obvious (as I did already at IRC yesterday). I don't care much for distro specific things in the upstream repo. I don't do packages so I don't have to work with the fact that it is there but if it hinders the workflow for someone I would rather remove these things. It's something for the package guys to decide in on my opinion. Branches or what ever. Be my guest. The cooperation between distros we have seen earlier is something I really like and I hope we will see those things in the future also. (Yes I am on the Debian/Ubuntu camp usually but this is 100% upstream view, I don't do anything with packages for neither Debian nor Ubuntu.) - -- brother http://sis.bthstudent.se -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBCAAGBQJPzHqXAAoJEJbdSEaj0jV7ZZEH/jpPn13FOCDshGc0bqakep4U 0KIi8MBOSjU07UUVkxyYowG/mJCYmrWrQN5Wth6Xzd9WFcWCYaWqHEX0aIenEiY+ qIQN0SG3y0towmJxLAzUUDzKeafOqkuqYj2WXSmEj5XyN/5FmBH1ieWzMQw/3rk7 Qh9uHN5a9cV76UNmo+ZZQssFPDWc9G+dwBX4AFIch9SGSJfswmGo9lXBelszBaue RmLdwnh3m9Saz3AbLGguCo63j8vgyL77RHDyJ2jRXqkpLZaS6zbSYj3sPfBAWxLT dHIgkXmKf3Qmwc8VqVKoiK0PMCD3DZMqzpq1367lp7sJPiu4lgIZUFSpgnP7Hcc= =qscH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |
