I'd put it somewhere in /home - /home/cvs, maybe? Don't worry too much about Debian policy and the FHS, other than keeping out of the way of places they label as being for system use; they're documents that distributions have to worry about, not really users. For instance, the debian.org machines keep all kinds of things in /org, so the bug tracking system is all in master:/org/bugs.debian.org, etc. My workplace encourages /space for user data on local machines (home directories are NFS-mounted) and uses things like /data on service machines like the main development web server. This is all completely outside policy and the FHS, but that's OK. -- Colin Watson [[EMAIL PROTECTED]] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
