Where is your diff to policy? This proposal will require extensive changes to policy wording (including writing a nontrivial specification of debian/rules command-line syntax) if done right, so I will have to object to this proposal until precise changes to the wording are provided. I support the general spirit of this proposal, though. -- %%% Antti-Juhani Kaijanaho % [EMAIL PROTECTED] % http://www.iki.fi/gaia/ %%%
