Re: Two silly XEmacs questions

It'd be real nice to have M-x package-get / add-big-package.sh
do this "rm -rf".
Right.
It'd also be good if the sound packages had lisp/_pkg.el so
that packages-package-list would know what version you've got.
Right. Locale is another example of a load-path-less package.
_pkg.el files aren't used after building as their entire contents get
snarfed into the auto-autoloads.el file. I'm loathe to add directories
to load-path that contain only tiny auto-autoloads files as every extra
directory causes a slowdown in path searching and startup. Perhaps we
can stuff it in the top level package lisp directory.
