Hi Magnus,
I'd like a scheme where both HP and bleeding edge of packages can be installed, side by side.
to accomplish that, the version number must become part of the ArchLinux package name. For example: parsec 2.0 ==> parsec_2_0 (provides: parsec2, parsec) parsec 2.1.0.0 ==> parsec_2_1_0_0 (provides: parsec2_1_0, parsec2_1, parsec2, parsec) parsec 2.1.0.1 ==> parsec_2_1_0_1 (provides: parsec2_1_0, parsec2_1, parsec2, parsec) parsec 3.0.0 ==> parsec_3_0_0 (provides: parsec3_0, parsec3, parsec) parsec 3.1.0 ==> parsec_3_1_0 (provides: parsec3_1, parsec3, parsec) That scheme would allow us to install any number of versions of the same package simultaneously. It's not pretty, though, and I'm not even sure it's desirable to have that. Take care, Peter
