I'm not sure about this. I think I'd be tentatively in favour of it myself but I know some others have strong feelings about manifest-based hacks.
I believe you should be able to declare your manifest inside do_install(), then call manifest_do_install and have it work. I don't really think that's less of a hack though, and there is a lot of clever magic built into the manifest install routine that shouldn't be needlessly duplicated. If nobody objects I will apply the patch in a couple of days. -Michael _______________________________________________ gobolinux-devel mailing list gobolinux-devel@lists.gobolinux.org http://lists.gobolinux.org/mailman/listinfo/gobolinux-devel
