One of the problems here is that the main architect of the proposed PKG management system was Holger Veit who had a good overview of where it was all going, but he no longer appears to be involved in trying to create a UnixOS/2 distro. > Personally, I don't care whether grep is in the "a1" or > "d2" or "baseutils" or whatever tree. That was one of the good things about adopting Slackware as a standard reference platform. No one needed to think about which apps went in which series of PKGs, you simply followed the Slackware layout. It saved a lot of pointless discussion. > Bye, > Andreas -- John _______________________________________________ UX2BS mailing list UX2BS at os2ports.com http://os2ports.com/mailman/listinfo/ux2bs
