Same thing then... you're using a tool to create the HTML/XML for you. Generate it however you want. If the final format isn't XML or similar then normal browsers won't render it (which isn't a serious problem, but it looks nicer formatted). >> $ 0alias svn http://0install.net/2007/3rd-party/Subversion.xml >> >> That will also download up to 11 other libraries, > > Umm.. the file lists no dependencies.

In that file (use View Source to see the XML if you're using a browser), there is this bit: <requires interface="http://0install.net/2007/3rd-party/libsvn1.xml"> <environment insert="usr/lib" name="LD_LIBRARY_PATH"/> </requires> That in turn depends on other things... In fact, the subversion packages mirror the structure of the Debian packages because that's where I copied the binaries from (someone was explaining to me how it was impossible to backport svn 1.4 to Debian/sarge because of all the dependencies...) -- Dr Thomas Leonard http://rox.sourceforge.net GPG: 9242 9807 C985 3C07 44A6 8B9A AE07 8280 59A5 3CC1
