Greetings,
I have created a pkgsrc package for the 4Suite python XML toolkit.
This is a particularly handy set of python packages which includes
XSLT, XPATH, and DOM implementations.
The homepage for 4Suite is located at:
http://www.4suite.org/.
The source package I have built is at:
http://hubris.fantoccini.com/py-4suite.tgz
I would like this package to eventually be included in pkgsrc,
but don't know how to cleanly handle how it installs with
Py-XML. The problem is that 4Suite updates (overwrites) the
XSLT implementation included in the Py-XML package.
How should I handle this in a way that won't break PyXML if
the 4Suite package is deleted? Should I backup the PyXML
files prior to installing 4Suite?
The package I made is for the last 'release' of 4Suite, 0.11.1.
Regards,
Dan M.
