Hi llev,
why do get-foo packages still exist?
Obviously because anyone still don't re-write them from get-* packages to get-scripts.

I will re-create the cooking chroot this evening or tomorrow.
Next, I will recook *every* packages for 10 days.
During these 10 days upgrades will be dangerous.

Hi aleksej,

I understand well why there can be a get-X package but no X get-script. (And I thank all the contributors!)
What I don't understand is: why is there still a get-Y package when the Y get-script exists already? Examples:
wok/get-flash-plugin & get-scripts/flash-plugin
wok/get-LibreOffice & get-scripts/libreoffice
wok/get-java6-jre & get-scripts/javajre

It's just two generations.
The #1 gen is wok/get-*
The #2 gen is get-scripts/*
Some scripts was rewritten from #1 gen to #2 gen.
You can get some info from my comments to the TazPKG "get" module: http://hg.slitaz.org/tazpkg/file/50421cb50644/modules/get
If two alternatives exists in the same time, "get-packages" have priority over "get-scripts".
Situation when we have two packages do the same from #1 gen and #2 gen is unpleasant, but not wrong.
You can help testing these "get-packages" vs "get-scripts". (Sorry, frankly I have no desire to do it. Yet it is working as-is.) Please, answer yourself:
If so, please inform us that we can remove some "get-packages".
