Well, I figured that once we felt that the new document had stabilized, it would either become pard of the Policy Manual, or there would be a pointer to it as an external file. It think this particular bit should be subsumed by a section in the new document detailing this issue. Something like: Packages with only marginal emacs relevance ------------------------------------------- Generally, if a normal package just contains some emacs helper files, and does not need to perform any byte-compilation or other emacs dependent activities upon installation (for performance or other reasons), then it is not necessary to specify a dependency on emacsen or any flavor of emacs, and the package may just include files located in the standard emacs add-on directories: /etc/<emacs>/site-start.d /usr/share/<emacs>/site-lisp -- Rob Browning <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP fingerprint = E8 0E 0D 04 F5 21 A0 94 53 2B 97 F5 D6 4E 39 30
