As usual, I modified the patch slightly in my git repo (I added a
missing '\n'), so review it instead of ML's one.
One more thing, that I didn't emphasize earlier, but I should have:
When I finally voted to this implemented behavior of replacements, I
kept in mind that many users have testing repo "enabled". But if you
accept my proposed behavior, there is a (small?) limitation on
distro/packager side: If you want to replace bar with a set of
packages (for example, you split it into libbar and bar-ui), you
_must_ put them into the same repo. If libbar is put into core, bar-ui
is put into extra, only one replacement will be asked from user (the
question is depend on his repo priority). Imho this is not a big
limitation, but I must speak now.
Bye
