Thanks. Your comment reminded me of something that I forgot to say in my last message, which should give people a better idea of the status of the /usr/lib vs /usr/share split. The directories that are currently in /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library (that are not symlinks) now are: - ApplicationSupport - Bundles - ColorPickers - Services These four directories will contain executable code (not intended to be run directly by the user). They may also contain some arch-indep stuff (such as images and other resources), but those can be moved to /usr/share on a package-by-package basis (if the size of the arch-indep stuff warrants it, or if someone complains about that package), and doesn't affect the core libraries. - Frameworks Contains shared libraries. The headers and other resources have been moved to /usr/include and /usr/share, respectively, so this directory now only contains library code and symlinks. - Libraries Just symlinks to the libraries in /usr/lib and in the Frameworks directory, so that GNUstep programs can find them if they expect them in that directory. All other subdirectories of /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library (other than those that are installed by other packages) contain only architecture-independent files, and have been moved to /usr/share (or /usr/include in the case of the headers), with symlinks in place. -- Hubert Chan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net.
