I did not want to require programmers to modify a single file of some distribution, e.g. cl-sql. And I wanted the .fas files to be distributable. That makes sense. > Searching a couple of directories and having packages work equally well when installed from .tar.gz or frmo Debian .deb is valuable IMHO, because I find myself in a situation where I have the debian packages, but also a newer copy from .tar.gz which I use to contribute patches. That doesn't sound like the ideal world, don't you think? No, it's not ideal to have the Debian package have different source code to handle the Debian-specific directory for the reason you mention. However, CLSQL 3.2.0 in Debian does have a local patch to accomodate /usr/lib/clsql/ path. But, it is not perfect, as you say. -- Kevin Rosenberg kevin-HJRc7zDS/[email protected]
