I guess if I wanted to e.g. share them between two optionally available brands right now I could simply try and link the two uno_packages dir to some single location. Just kicking around packaging the BrOffice.org brand in additional to the stock OOo brand, and want to try and keep things simple wrt. the existing packaged extensions and upgrade paths. Also (for the moment at least) if someone has extensions installed under OOo2 systemwide they won't be migrated automagically to OOo3 as the locations are different now. I note that if I simply move the OOo2 uno_packages dir into OOo3 that it "works", anyone know if I have any sort of guarantee that it "should work" ?
