prefix is neither "mainstream", nor "standard". The way I solved "it" currently hence is just a temporal workaround. I brought up the example simply because I'm strugling myself with how EAPI will eventually allow for "Prefix" to enter the main tree (or not), if ever. Currently the combination in EAPI serves me pretty well, and hence yes, if this GLEP gets accepted I'll have to find another way to achieve the same as it's not going to work well in the extention. -- Fabian Groffen Gentoo on a different level -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
