That's probably a good idea. Something like the Debian dependency
system, with tags like
>= GNU Emacs 21.1
may also be nice. The FreeBSD ports have a ${CONFLICTS} makefile
convention that may be useful too. The editors/emacs and
editors/emacs-devel ports install files with the same name, so they
include ${CONFLICTS} like this:
CONFLICTS= emacs-19.* emacs-21.* emacs-22.* \
xemacs-[0-9]* xemacs-devel-[0-9]* \
xemacs-mule-[0-9]* xemacs-devel-mule-[0-9]*
We could probably use something similar to mark up compatibility
comments, i.e.:
;; Compatible: emacs-21.*, emacs-22.*, xemacs-21.3
;; Incompatible: emacs-19.*, emacs-20.*, xemacs-21.4
