I don't understand, why link? why not copy ?
IMHO, it is just to use system efficiently and lower number of tasks that maintainer has to think about. Package already exist in maintainer home and every change is available instantly if it is linked. No extra work, CPU time and hard disk space to update copy in Contrib repo, and no way to forget to update copy. When repo is frozen, create copy to prevent accidental change. -- Regards, Rajko http://en.opensuse.org/Portal needs helpful hands. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
