Minor correcton -- rpvm does indeed use libpvm3, but the dispute is over libgpvm3, not libpvm3. (libgpvm3 is a set of rarely-used group functions, a supplement to libpvm3. libpvm3 has had shared libraries in Debian for a long time, but this is a Debianism; if I had packaged the package myself from scratch today, I'd probably rather make a libpvm3_pic package.) The rest of the mail looks reasonable to me. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/
