I know that this is a rehash of previous discussions, but it's a stretch to claim that usrmove is against the FHS - the most you can really argue is that there's a requirement for recovery tools to be in the root file system, but given that there's also a statement that /boot contains data used before the kernel starts executing user-space processes it's clear that this predates the modern initramfs. It's explicitly permitted that the mandated directories in / be symlinks. From a practical perspective, I do tend to agree that putting software under /opt/fedora would be in line with the FHS and also unlikely to break anything. -- Matthew Garrett | [email protected] -- devel mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
