Re: reftex needs to be upgraded.

You have previously stated that the build system is not considered part of the individual packages and so the control files for building packages need not be distributed as package source. Now the GPL states The "Corresponding Source" for a work in object code form means all the source code needed to generate, install, and (for an executable work) run the object code and to modify the work, including scripts to control those activities. However, it does not include the work's System Libraries, or general-purpose tools or generally available free programs which are used unmodified in performing those activities but which are not part of the work. For example, Corresponding Source includes interface definition files associated with source files for the work, and the source code for shared libraries and dynamically linked subprograms that the work is specifically designed to require, such as by intimate data communication or control flow between those subprograms and other parts of the work. You have previously stated that the control files used for building the packages are not supposed to be part of the package source. Now if Sumo is supposed to be a mere aggregation, then those control files also are not part of Sumo. They are not part of XEmacs proper either, since XEmacs is distributed without them and without any preinstalled packages. So what are they part of? -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ XEmacs-Beta mailing list XEmacs-Beta(a)xemacs.org http://calypso.tux.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xemacs-beta
