I have an interest as having been responsible for the pkg-config crosswrapper stuff some years ago, but have not been taking much notice recently. If everything you said in your mail is true (the new one is a superset and better in every way, and the cross stuff will still work but in a less complicated way) then it sounds like a sensible plan. I must admit to having never heard of pkgconf before today, but you are a sensible chap so I assume this is indeed all as you say it is. > Meanwhile, I have uploaded an updated version of the package which dropped > the crosswrapper, and instead uses the "personalities" feature to implement > its functionality.

I would like to understand how the cross stuff works with this personalities thing, but it may be a while before I get round to it. Again I shall assume that you know what you are doing :-) If Helmut is happy then I'm sure it's good. Wookey -- Principal hats: Debian, Wookware, ARM http://wookware.org/
