Re: [Cooker] Spec-files archive for commercial software?

It would help, if there was an archive to put this (an other) spec-file into, wouldn't it? Just to let you know: it is include in the 7.1 commercial CD's. -- Guillaume Cottenceau

[Cooker] Spec-files archive for commercial software?
I really like Jürgen's suggestion, and if there isn't such an archive already it would be nice to make one for Linux Mandrake. I have some spec files for other "downloadable" packages I could contribute. - David.

Maybe this would be a good project for MandrakeUser.org to take on. Or for someone to contribe to them. Just a thought. --Mark --- diablero [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Fri, Jun 02, 2000 at 04:20:22PM +0100, David Aspinall wrote: I really like Jürgen's suggestion, and if there isn't such an archive already it would be nice to make one for Linux Mandrake.

I would be extremely happy to put those spec files on my site for people to download and use. Since I'm not "officially" a part of MandrakeSoft, I have no qualms about it. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED], OpenPGP key available on www.keyserver.net Freezer Burn BBS: telnet://bbs.freezer-burn.org .
