Je trouve que c'est une erreur d'avoir autant de paquets dans notre arbre. C'est une contrainte, quelque chose qui nuit à la productivité. Si un jour il faut rendre un paquet autonome, ce serait facile de l'arnacher, mais entre temps, je propose la suppression de tous les configure.ac intermédiaires. Seul le bundle compte.
Why changing something that works? It was long to set, but now it does not need so much maintaining. It is good to have a build farm that check each packages, reading the logs is easier.
I'm sorry, but it is not my view that it is working: with Alexandre we lost almost 1 man-day because the C grammar he thought he was using (the one in the src tree) was not the one that was used (the last one to be installed). In addition it is common knowledge that the Autotools are *very* costly to run: any improvement of the working cycle in the Tfers project is an healthy move. I might agree for the removal of *some* indirections instead of all of them, but as is as of today, it is ridiculous --- you can't justify so many packages. I propose 3 sub packages: - StrategoXTensions boxedsdf esdf sdf-astgen sdf-attribute sdf-detgen sdf-option str-lazy - C Grammars c-condition c-grammar - C++ Grammars cxx-basic cxx-grammar specs-grammar
