<PRE>&gt;<i> 2012/1/3 Michael Scherer &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">misc at zarb.org</A>&gt;:
</I>[...]
&gt;&gt;<i> I was more thinking of proper patchs or better, proper modules, with
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> files to deploy in a well know directory .
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> I only gave a part of an example. MODs are made as enhancement to the
</I>&gt;<i> standard software. The easiest MOD is like Michael wrote: &quot;a module
</I>&gt;<i> with files to deploy in a well known directory&quot;. But in most cases
</I>&gt;<i> they consist of files to copy into various directories of the program
</I>&gt;<i> tree and changes to existing files of the software. There are other
</I>&gt;<i> MODs which can be implemented automatically - which is far worse IMHO.
</I>&gt;<i> This is where a modded phpBB3 could turn into a nightmare to maintain
</I>&gt;<i> - believe me, I've been there :(
</I>
/o\

&gt;<i> Of course no developper of a MOD could know what somebody has already
</I>&gt;<i> done to the standard files, so it's not possible do use only patches.
</I>&gt;<i> And it could be (and that happens quite often) that a MOD is not
</I>&gt;<i> compatible to your already &quot;modificated&quot; forum software (destroys
</I>&gt;<i> other modifications or whatever).
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> IMHO the best way in this case here would be a mod written for our
</I>&gt;<i> setup, all changes well defined to make it maintainable in a proper
</I>&gt;<i> way. Saying this I beg to think again whether the issue  justifies all
</I>&gt;<i> the time and work.
