That sounds like a reasonable idea to me, but I'm not sure I'm the |
25 |
right person to make that call. I don't maintain many desktop |
26 |
packages. |

If some others chime in saying this would be desirable, I could |
29 |
certainly work on that. Ideally, I would like the freedesktop |
30 |
maintainers to agree on any/all functions that should be moved to the |
31 |
new eclass. |
32 |
|
33 |
Otherwise, I will stick with the current xdg-basedir eclass and leave |
34 |
the consolidation work to someone else. |

Personally, I think that looks stupid. ^_^ Not something I'm going to |
41 |
fight over if it bothers people though. |
