[Foresight-distro] Re: homework (make foresight bootstrap fully inside rMake)

[Ken VanDine]

You could also add this to your .conaryrc

includeConfigFile http://www.foresightlinux.org/sitemedia/foresight.rmakerc

This would ensure we are all using the same rmake settings for 1-devel
and 1-contrib.  If we change how we want things built, we can just do
it in one place.  This defines the fl:1-devel and fl:1-contrib
contexts.
