I’m sorry for asking this late in the game, but I didn’t find the
answer in previous discussions: why two packages?  It seems to me that a
“lib” output would achieve the same, no?

(It’s best to leave a comment in such a situation.)

If you tell me I’m wrong, that’s OK, I’ll apply it right away!

Thanks,
Ludo’.
