So I needed to update this patch (respecting you prior feedback). This package no replaced one function (_FindRepo). I decided to *not* use a patch for this, but to insert the changed code at the beginning of _FindRepo and keeping the old code as dead code (with an appropriate comment). I know, this is ugly, but this program is ugly anyway: There is no "install", but the front-end script downloads the software using git and installs it. *shiver* If you have concerns about this, please speak up. -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | h.goebel@crazy-compilers.com | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible |
