Don't forget that you can have subsections (eg science/math,
science/biology). This is already used for non-US/{contrib,non-free}; why
not use it for things like this?

Julian,
What about Perl, interpreted Java, Pike, BASIC, et al?
My point: Using interpreted languages in rules files should be
avoided. Otherwise thou canst not build eg python without already having
python installed... and you get a chicken-and-egg problem. Ouch.

Alex.

Julian,
It can be done the easy way, or the hard way. What you described is the
hard way. Why can't it be done the easy way?

Alex.
