So far I don't see how... Virtual would mean that the same functionality is provided by different packages, and that they can be exchanged at runtime. However, for rpc there are different library *names* (sonames) to be linked, and for nls the soversion is different... Even if the headers were identical, that wouldnt work :/ -- Andreas K.
