I'm not sure I understood what you meant. Let me paraphrase what I think you might have meant, and you'll correct me: 1. Create buzz-fixed as a symlink copy of buzz. 2. When a package is released that must go into buzz-fixes, a symlink to it also goes to buzz-fixed. 3. Rebuild buzz-fixes/Packages and buzz-fixed/Packages. Nothing changes under buzz, right? Actually, I'm not sure we need buzz-fixes/Packages, but if we do, shouldn't it be identical to buzz-fixed/Packages? I have a slight preference to having the packages in buzz-fixes and only symlinks in buzz-fixed (remember: buzz-fixed is initially just a symlink copy of buzz), but I don't really care either way. If I'm completely wrong, just say so. I'm hazy on how all this works in practice. If I'm right, I don't think I have anything to complain about, except that the name difference buzz-fixes and buzz-fixed is too small; perhaps buzz-fixes and buzz-better would be better names? (I think we already have buzz-fixes, although my mirror is still downloading.) > Comments - especially from the members of iwj-mastercron@master - are > welcome. Oops, sorry. :)
