Suggestions?
Package manager will download and upgrade the dependency if needed. Bundle the exporters in to say org-extras*.tar or org-devel-*.tar and then have that package depend on the right version of org-*.tar. We can provide different URLs for gnu and non-gnu packages. So that users will know what to test with more rigour. > Regards, > Achim. --
