I'd personally like this to happen, yeah. It's in line with the original intent of libexec and lib, and that the FHS didn't recognize it was a long standing bug (IMHO, it certainly was a long-standing annoyance :) ).
What's wrong with /usr/lib/name/?
Everything. lib shall not contain executables. lib shall not contain subdirectories. lib shall contain only libraries. lib shall contain _nothing_ on lib64 platforms.
A pretty radical demand. I guess you have technical insight that makes you say that? Even the dynamic linker may read libraries from subdirectories. Also, what about multilib approaches?
IMO /usr/libexec is redundant.
20 years of linux distros doing it wrong by overriding perfectly fine autoconf defaults (caused by the FHS not grasping the concept) makes you think so.
Perfectly fine defaults like /usr/com? :-) Fedora seems to be rather lonely in the Linux world by using libexec. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.com/ SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+owner@opensuse.org
