We're not (ultimately, at least), just talking about a list of packages. It is like a sub-version of the operating system. A "flavor", perhaps. Using a different ID and ID_LIKE=fedora seems a) far too heavy and b) expressive of a much larger difference. I *do* like that you're planning to move this to /usr/lib. It never made sense to me as _configuration_. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
