In spirit, boswars = bos + stratagus. But I'm really unsure dummy transition packages are appropriate, especially when the data package takes 5 times more space; and when people initially interested in the engine only will now get a dependency upon a huge data package. AFAICT, that's not a trivial transition, and not supporting upgrades from bos, stratagus, and stratagus-gl was done on purpose. But I welcome any comments, of course. Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois
