Alfred wanted to know which flags I used to configure glibc on GNU/Hurd. I told him. He asked why I'd have to use '--prefix=[...] --with-headers=[...]'. I gave a short introduction into the package-installation-system I'm using (implying the need to use these flags). > Are you suggesting something we > should do, or what is this about? It only was a heads-up: I'm doing this and that and it's working for me. I gave this introduction to show what I (and others) are doing, that it's working for us. I wanted to give another opinion to the people designing an equivalent system for the GNU system. > We know the advantages of using separate directories to install > packages into, but we also know the advantages of having all packages > folded into a single directory hierarchy. I'll continue discussing that topic on gnu-system-dicuss, ok?
