My only complaint with the original PPM structure is that if you install a lot of packages, then /root/.packages can get quite messy and hard to find with everything mixed in together, which I think is what happened to mistfire also. I'm not sure if there was good reason for putting user installed packages in /root/.packages instead of /root/.packages/user-packages originally, maybe it was just more convenient for devs at the time. I would have just made that one change for now and see how it works, ironing out the bugs for that, rather than doing all these adjustments at once, but if mistfire is up to challenge of debugging it all then I guess all the power to them. I think wdlkmpx might be considering a PPM fork in the rationalise branch also.bigpup wrote:To be honest. I am not really sure why PPM needs this?
Recently I haven't been "installing" many pets though, I prefer just using SFS files or ibiblio/forum pets on demand in pfix=ram.
