However, it won't really be much of a problem for debian as I'm the maintainer of portmap and nfs-utils. >>>Its not so much the annoyance... its the fact that other services >>>like NIS also depend on portmap/rpcbind.

I thought it was pretty common to do that sort of >>thing. The source package will generate a number of binary packages (including the portmap binary package) and other binary packages will depend on the portmap binary package as it happens now. One problem that I see is that users will have to deal with a much bigger source package to create patches for portmap. Another problem is that to build portmapt, users only interested on portmap and not interested on NFS will have to build-depend on all the nfs-utils build-dependecies. >Talking with people that know more about rpms that I ever >want to know ;-) Yes... it is possible to create multiple >rpms, with different names, from one source tree and it is >done, but it does cause confusion... so its not clear how >common it is... >> >>But maybe there's no particular advantage to having the two together >>anyway. >I really don't see any...
