But that would require quite big changes.
Sam Hartman is working on a way to allow the MIT Kerberos and Heimdal libraries to be installed at the same time, not via the default library packages but via packages that install the libraries into subdirectories of /usr/lib. The default library packages would create the links into /usr/lib and would conflict with each other. So that particular problem may become more tractable soon. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
