A package can belong to more than one herd. So you could create a media-vdr herd, and have two herd tags in the metadata.xml for the vdr packages; media-tv and media-vdr (I suggest the media- prefix as it's not necessarily obvious what vdr means on its own). If you do this, make sure there's a maintainer tag. However (c) seems to be the most sensible approach. > > > What do you think of that? > > Zzam > -- Kevin F. Quinn
