Hysterical accident is what my bleached neurons remember.
Either Mandriva or PLD was the first to try to use a macro for init
scripts directories in packaging. The rest is conventional comedies
with predicatble
punch lines and canned laughter.
It was Mandriva, says the changelog:
http://rpm5.org/cvs/filediff?f=rpm/platform.in&v1=2.6&v2=2.7
Couldn't find their original changelog,
seems like it was reset at 2005 or so ?
