And if you depend on porting in a few other debian packages you'll repackage them for maemo? Doable - but to expect other devs to do that? At the moment 'porting' an app is usually a semi-automated process. Having to figure out the debian/rules for each and then hacking their ./configure to --prefix=/opt Oh boy PLEASE don't require a ./configure change optify is the lesser evil David -- "Don't worry, you'll be fine; I saw it work in a cartoon once..." _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
