E.g, Though 'skins' is a dir, "r.Install('skins',

Hi,
With our current utilities, removing obsolete buildreqs is not so easy
as adding new ones, afaik. But sometimes removing is needed, e.g. gnome

If a package has a configure option as default=auto, what's the

Hi,
I think it's not so rare that a package requires a particular version of
it's dependency, instead of the newest version. For example, gtk
requires automake1.7 and 1.10 won't work. (i know, i already brought
this up for several times :)
How should I specify it in this case, since I think cvc/r
ate, the same with my laptop.
There are some other localization problems. But overall it's pretty good
and I may install foresight for several of my classmates later. (It
would be a big plus if our User Guide has a Chinese version :)
