OCD triggered: Two very optional (it's an example after all) suggestions given you're already changing it: 1) Example-timeliness niggle: s/gtk-1/qt5/ (or pick other appropriate...) qt5 isn't out-of-tree yet but the effort is toward that /eventually/, so it's a far more current example than gtk-1. (/How/ long has that been out-of-tree?) 2) Style niggle: Wrapping a two-word phrase to put just one on a line by itself... [grumble, grumble]. Sentence line-breaks are even better so maybe (example in-point, "maybe:" wrapped to its own line...): > +## # Doesn't work with new libfoo. > +## # Upstream dead, qt5, smells funny. (Or maybe with the shorter qt5 it'll all fit on one line?) Again, both entirely optional, but that /would/ satisfy my OCD. YMMV. -- Duncan - List replies preferred. No HTML msgs.
