This is still basically an aesthetic argument. Is there any functional reason to change this? Is there anything that is currently not working that would work better under this scenario?

---- There are about 1300+ packages in my /usr/lib64 dir. The default on packages coming with config would have been /usr/lib.
That's 1300 packages that had a have a special patch applied (75% of total).
Seems like not having to go out of one's way to patch away from what is the 'normal expected path', would be more than aesthetics....
FWIW, with opensuse, the 'fhs' package is an optional install.
There is no requirement that openSuSE without fhs installed be FHS compatible, is there?
Or is openSUSE FHS compatible without the FHS package installed?
Actually no, as %configure RPM macro does that for you automatically. And there is of course reasoning behind that, and it is defined for us. Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
