* Because that is NOT the standard of the port. I saw the mail John Robert LoVerso (loverso@osf.org) wrote to John Ousterhout (it was resent to `ports' by Jordan). * To change it involved a LOT * of code (I wrote all the diffs to do this the first time), This is a little hard to believe, I did the tcl74/tk4 ports and the version number changes was only a minor part (I mean it has a largish diff for shared library support, which tcl/tk didn't have, but changing the name of the library was only a small part of that patch). * but our previous * behavior is a -bug-. I don't agree with this. Disallowing a special character (`.' in this case, which is used to delimit various parts of the library file name) in the `name' part of the library can be construed as a `feature' (ok, only if it's documented :). At any rate, I wish you'd asked the lists before commiting the change, this is a pretty important change.... Satoshi
