Amen. If we start really big here, we're just going to end up talking |
11 |
about this for months and never get anything done. Perhaps we could |
12 |
agree to work on getting packages to install in a prefix firstly and |
13 |
develop a procedure for making that happen. I see the rest of the |
14 |
issues in this thread as separate, even though they are related. |

Exactly. Since the solution to this problem seems to be the crux of |
22 |
the discussion here, perhaps we could split this thread and continue |
23 |
the discussion about alternatives to package.provided in a new thread |
24 |
while working out a procedure for installing to a prefix simultaneously. |
