Hello,

Doesn't this break all reverse dependencies?

As a packager I currently do not see the need (or a benefit) to use
separate directories if the files are going to stay identical. Am I
missing something? (I would simply move away from the above mentioned
ultra-conservative approach and save complexity and archive space.)
