[csw-maintainers] [csw-devel] SF.net SVN: gar:[15079] csw/mgar/pkg/libserf/trunk/Makefile

[rupert THURNER]

for three reasons:
1. it did not build with the package split
2. it is a very small package and it adds complexity
3. something broke serf support in subversion a couple of months ago
    and with my restricted knowledge i was not able to upgrade subversion
and serf.

i removed the libserf0-0 obsolete, and now it complains about libserf-devel:
$ csw-upload-pkg pkgs/17.Jul.2011/libserf*

in general i'd prefer less complex recipies, which are easy upgradable even
by non-experts ... like me  :)
