And just to make sure, I had a look back up the thread to see what your complaints were, and the only thing you said in this thread was on the 21st of March, msgid <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> when you said: >Doing this would violate the FHS.... It was replied to by Anthony Towns, who said: >Nonsense; changes to the FHS have to first be trialled in distros, >so adding new directories and moving things around is explicitly a >supported part of the FHS process these days. It seemed to me that opinion was more swayed towards giving this a try, and seeing what happened. I don't know what it will take to convince you, but I would like you to answer these questions: Do you think having programs write to /etc is a bad thing? Where would you put /etc/mtab, to keep /etc sacrosanct? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~jaq
