I wonder if 'yast++' or 'yast--' are names that might cause trouble sometime in the future because of the '+' or '-' in it.
I wasn't very happy with the version number as part of the package name in yast2. Using '++' or '--' might be even worse, e.g. rpm uses '-' as delimiter. There are more examples where it might cause conflicts, I guess.
What's your opinion?
Thanks. Thomas
YaST++/-- is just codename for project. Packages ( now located at https://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=YaST%3AHead%3Ayastpp ( not all packages packaked yet, WIP ) has own names, which is not problem for RPM. Josef
The project's name is 'YaST++', in git it's called 'yast--' and the buildservice projects is 'yastpp'. That's somehow inconsistent and might confuse newbies. I'd prefer a unique name.
