hmm, isn't that just normal doc stuff ? ;-o (perhaps under the packager/ subdir) > > Why do extfs scripts belong into contrib ? > >> contrib/syntax (current ${src_root}/syntax) > > Why are the syntaxfiles contrib stuff ? > > this not a part of mc executable and must be in conrtib area, IMHO They're needed by mcedit at runtime, same as shared libs, configs, etc. IMHO, "contrib" means: from external sources and not officially maintained by the upstream.

IMHO an stupid idea: Embedded maintainers should use an trimmed-down slang or do static linking, etc. BTW: the change of unnecessarily bloating up the system w/ bundled slang is quite good - just takes one more slang-using app and all benefit's gone. My vote is to completely dropping the bundled slang and let the embedded folks do the trim-down on their own. cu -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt == metux IT service - http://www.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please visit the OpenSource QM Taskforce: http://wiki.metux.de/public/OpenSource_QM_Taskforce Patches / Fixes for a lot dozens of packages in dozens of versions: http://patches.metux.de/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
