I do not think this is a de facto standard at all yet. What pieces of software use apply it? The length of that list should be compared to the order of magnitude of something like $(ls -1 /etc | wc -l) on a typical system before assuming that this has become the standard. The fact that a given piece of software is new or written by Lennart or whoever does not make its behaviour standard at all. The existence of a recommendation from IETF, LSB or XDG does, however. -- ,--. : /` ) Tanguy Ortolo <xmpp:[email protected]> <irc://irc.oftc.net/Elessar> | `-' Debian Maintainer \_ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
