It depends having a subpackage for a bunch of README files is useless while having a subpackage for ports with loads of html/pdf files would deserve it= yes. Note that there is "magic" planned in pkg at all :) >=20 > Q2) are we opening the door the -devel packages like some Linux distros? That is an entirely different direction and this would be a policy discussi= on. In short: 1/ technically, yes it would allow that 2/ is that what I am aiming at: not at all >=20 > Q3) Do you think there is a general way to decide what should stay an > OPTION and what should/could become a FLAVOR?
