It is not sugar-jhbuild specifically. It is the concept of running large pieces of unknown code. If a lot of people allready runs exact same code, the risk of it exploding in my face is smaller. sugar-jhbuild is just the top of the iceberg: it pulls a lot of external sources and invokes their commands. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEAREDAAYFAko+lfAACgkQn7DbMsAkQLj3gwCfQnhvXKchwRoFmfTQpQYS3Hdb enIAoIC9nk47UoY3CFh8YH30UviX2VEw =FQYF -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
