Fully agreed. I'm perfectly fine with libiscsi ...

IMO the only sane option here is to have a separate package,
containing libiscsi _only_.
It can be a sub-package of existing iscsi-related things, ie
contained within the existing open-iscsi _source_ repository.
But having is packaged _together_ with another rpm is really bad.
Plus it makes updating a nightmare.
So, Mike, what about having it as a sub-package to open-iscsi?
I'm all for it, especially as some partners are already asking for
it ...
Cheers,
Hannes
