  Title: creating nonexistent directories with Autoyast
   
  openSUSE-11.2: Evaluation
  Priority
      Requester: Important
      Projectmanager: Important
   
  Requested by: Uwe Gansert (ug)
   
Description:
  from bug #429491
  It should be possible to create directories just like files with its
  permissions and ownership. Today it is impossible (using just "files")
  to put for example /root/.ssh/authorized_keys.
  To anticipate possible comments, the "file_script" is not IMHO the
  right way to deal with the problem since it is invoked after writing
  the file to a filesystem. Yet it may be considered a workaround as of
  today.
   
  Discussion:
  #1: Federico Lucifredi (flucifredi) (2009-01-23 14:19:55) 
  up for Engineering's comment. Is workaround adequate ?
   
  #2: Milisav Radmanic (radmanic) (2009-04-16 14:06:01) 
  The workaround is effective but technically not adequate. We should
  support creating directories like we do it for files. The request is
  off the mailinglist and makes sense.
   
+ #3: Stanislav Visnovsky (visnov) (2009-05-28 16:41:02) 
+ Isn't it better to have support for untarring root.tar.gz to the
+ filesystem like kiwi does?
