Description Andreas Hanke 2006-01-19 14:17:16 UTC
The wxGTK runtime package as of release 2.6.2.1-2 contains bakefile presets. This is not optimal because these files are only needed to build bakefile-based projects against wxGTK; they are not needed to run such programs.

See bakefile documentation: http://bakefile.sourceforge.net/doc/html/index.html

The real disadvantage of having them in the runtime package is that they are unversioned. This makes it difficult for community packagers to create packages of later versions (e.g. current CVS_HEAD which is already labelled as 2.7, if needed by another program) without having clashes to the default one.

By moving these files into the devel package, only the devel packages would clash in such a case and the runtime packages would be parallel installable.
