We can clearly identify thing like /usr/share which seem to have been designed to be shared in this way. Logically at least even non-think machines can share that resource.
Not sure what a 'non-think' machine is, but certainly machines with different hardware architectures can share those directories.
There may be development libraries which it is easier to keep updated at a single point: /usr/lib/ruby, or if you are obsessive many of the library directories under /usr/lib.
IMHO, it is better to keep local copies of libraries, mainly for performance reasons. In the case of development libraries there are likely to be different versions in dev, test & production and careful and comprehensive version management should be in place.
There may also be shared resources like corporate cryptographic keys.
And you want to trust those to NFS :) You're avvin a larf, aincha? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
