Re: gnustep-make experiment

[Gregory John Casamento]

Nicola,



Have we even tried, experimentally, doing this refactoring to see if it
actually would make things simpler?   The best way to prove a point is
code.  I would like to see if it can be done.

While I understand it's not *strictly* needed for FHS compliance..... it is 
something that many developers, outside of GNUstep, use on a daily basis.

If someone can produce a patch which would simplify gnustep-make that uses 
pkg-config, I really don't see a reason not to consider including it.


Later, GJC

No.

No, but you can leverage it to make it even more complicated! ;-)

Thanks
