I think there's a disconnect.. You're talking about packaging. Josh is talking about source code. You're both right. :) Personally, I'd like to see the most amount of code reuse without code copying. Yes, QOF is external and eventually we should just use that. But I do NOT believe that we

Did you run autogen.sh in the HEAD branch? In my case this will install a system-dependent version of ltmain.sh, so I will always get this file marked as modified vs. the one in CVS. Okay, if this bothers too many people, my removal should be reverted. In the g2-branch I already reverted that

Christian, After picking up your last change I can no longer compile 1.8 or HEAD. The automake program quits while processing configure.in with a complaint that the ltmain.sh file is missing. I'm using automake 1.9. Interestingly enough, I don't see the problem in the g2 branch. David
