Well, since it would be nice to have a console tool (i.e. /usr/bin/09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0) to print out this number for use in shell scripts, as well as having bindings for scripting languages, I'd like to see this split out into several binary packages at least: lib09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-1 lib09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-dev 09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-tools lib09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-ruby lib09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-perl lib09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-python lib09F911029D74E35BD84156C5635688C0-lua ...etc... -- Wesley J.
