Yes. There is no change needed for the packages i tested until now (except placing an additional file called elMakefile into the install directory). And if a package would require to change its directory structure/whatever, that is clearly a fault of elMake then and needs to be fixed. This will of course mean for developers to maintain two different install methods. > Use of a configure file and `make > install' is the GNU standard, and we don't want any packages that now > support the standard to stop supporting it. Sure. I don't want that either. Michael
