I wouldn't like that, but it is beside my point. If a module is deprecated, then it should not be used in released code. If mhlib is deprecated, it doesn't tell you about it. mhlib uses multifile and multifile does tell you it is deprecated, and that is pretty annoying. I see the deprecation warning upon importing mhlib in 2.6 and trunk (with -Wd). -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
