Hi Everyone, So, there's been talk for a while in Gentooland of packaging up drupal modules to offer to gentoo users. As people are probably aware, the Gentoo way is to fetch source tarballs directly from upstream sources and build on the users' boxes. Drupal modules have historically been problematic for us to package, however. The thing is we do digest checking on the tarballs to assure some level of integrity. So, once a tarball is released, we count on that tarball not changing (a change signifies something potentially sinister happened). So, I'd like to make a request to the development community here (especially authors of contributed modules): would it be possible to change tarball versions when the contents change? That would help us in Gentoo to finally bring drupal modules to the Gentoo masses. Please note that drupal itself suffers no such ailment, and we're very happy with it. I'm not sure how other distributions' packagers feel about this issue, but I'd like to help achieve a resolution here. Thanks! -- Seemant Kulleen Developer, Gentoo Linux
