The _New_Way_ of looking at config files is the following: the *default*, rpm-provided config files should reside somewhere in /usr, while the *customized*, manually tweaked (portions of) config files should reside in /etc. This way there is a clear demarcation between the package manager territory (/usr) and admin's territory (/etc). In such a setup the yum update of a given package can update the default configuration without destroying your customizations. It will also make /etc much cleaner, easier to examine, fix, migrate, backup, and so on. There is a general push to make this happen for all apps, not just systemd, and you should get used to seeing it all over the place. I wouldn't be surprised if the near-future Fedora releases have clean installs with an almost-empty /etc, waiting for you to put your customizations in it. Personally, I think it's a good idea, and it will certainly make my own machines much easier to maintain. Whether this is FSH-compliant or not, I don't know. Some people say it is, some people say it is not, most of the people don't really care. :-) HTH, :-) Marko -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
