Long answer: Yes, the size of Parliament is prescribed by law at exactly 120 seats, plus any electorate seats won by parties that didn't get enough votes for one seat proportionately (so the maximum possible size after the next election is 190, if every electorate is won by a candidate of a party receiving no votes; the minimum is always 120).
Yes and no. For noncommercial distribution of binaries, all you have to do is provide them "with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code".
You can also either a) provide them with the source code, ending your obligation, or b) provide a written offer, valid for at least three years, to provide the code at no more than cost. If you distributed it by "offering access to copy from a designated place" (e.g., a local network server), then all you have to do is put the code beside it.
For the actual case of downloading it for a friend, you don't really need to do anything, since nobody's going to do anything about it. If you're doing it commercially, you do need to provide that written offer or the source itself.
It's not even the courts - it's treated as a contempt of Parliament, so it goes before the Privileges Committee (i.e. a select committee of MPs).
That said, it's very unlikely that anything of the sort will come of it. It's just not worth the trouble for them, especially since the media are so pissed about it now.
The other Congressman under a cloud is Rep. Don Young (R), not the other Alaskan senator (Lisa Murkowski (R)), who isn't yet being investigated for corruption.
This is what GoboHide is for. Libraries, for example, are merged (multiple versions can perfectly happily coexist so long as they have different filenames) into/System/Links/Libraries, symlinked from/lib, which is invisible. That means PATH=/System/Links/Executables, LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/System/Links/Libraries, etc.
The "two line" files work simply because there are wrappers to handle the system already -- running CompileProgram gaim-0.78.tar.bz2 will unpack and call./configure --prefix=/Programs/Gaim/0.78 [...] -- the recipes simply allow for greater definition of what needs to be done. It's no more "writing exceptions" than needed any other time to deal with programmes that inist on installing themselves in/bin, except it only needs to be done once.

You were saying? It works quite well, really.
