Why not "watching" the shape repository and load newcomers dynamically
? WindowMaker can watch the changes in its config file. Why not Dia
watching for changes in its shape directory.
I suppose it could do that. But then we have a synchronization problem
-- we wouldn't want to load half-way written files.
we avoid files in .shape.dpkg-new, then. We can try games like
lsof(1)'ing the file (unless we need root), etc.
(and the equivalent for RPM).
I don't like the idea of hacking around individual package management
systems. I'd rather have a menu item 'Reload shapes' or something.
