Well, not doing it at all is equivalent to just dropping it immediately. So if this is an improvement at all, even just doing it for one or two debian releases seems better than nothing. > Although I'd really rather do something that OpenAFS is also going to > adopt, since I have to rename the command in all the man pages. Yes, I was kind of thinking for openafs, too. While making the old names not work may not be appropriate for the 1.6.x timeframe, I don't see a reason not to rename them with appropriate symlinks immediately. -- Andrew Deason [email protected] _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
