[Fink-devel] Why no frameworks?
Is there any plans of trying to incorporate framework based builds into Fink distributed apps? There would be so much benefit from it. Is it just the work that'd be required that prevents it? Has the idea been discussed before? Thanks. - Take Surveys. Earn Cash.

Its main attraction is that it speaks the identical language as denyhosts making it the tool of choice for tweaking those particular regexes. Another way of saying this is that pcretest helps with this process, but I think that kodos will help better. (The author says it does anyway and his reputation is sound.) So you're indicating that possibly this could be a kodos.info package instead of a kodos-py.info package if I understand you correctly. As it happens, using Kurt's kodos-py.info does tend to help with its dependencies on pyqt-py, sip-py, and python-py, but certainly those could be hard-coded as well.

I haven't had a bunch of time, but I'm still working on this. These particular suggestions haven't magically fixed things, but they are helping. I'm going to also refer to the denyhosts.info since that package is also originally authored by Phil Schwartz and I'm guessing that the porting may therefore have similarities. __ Do You Yahoo!?
