Re: RFS: parallel



Hi,

The next parallel release from that in the package (20110322) includes
the --tollef switch and a site-wide config file (/etc/parallel/config)
to address this issue.

Thus parallel can install by default with --tollef activated in the
config file, replacing the /usr/bin/parallel executable without breaking
scripts.

Or if this (the replacement) is not wanted for any reason, then the
alternatives mechanism could be used.

I 'll have a closer look at the available options and come back with 
the next version of the package, that will also close #597050. 

Meanwhile, any ideas or suggestions are welcomed.

regards
George Zarkadas
