Hi all, While installing xfig-3.2.5 I faced a strange problem with my build script. Xorg puts the app-defaults directory at /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults. I try to enforce this by creating a $DESTDIR/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults and making $DESTDIR/etc/X11/app-defaults a symlink to it. But after a "make install" I find $DESTDIR/etc/X11/app-defaults has become a directory and $DESTDIR/usr/lib/X11/app-defaults now is a symlink to that. The two of them just switched roles. Tarring that up and untarring it in root results, predictably, in an error. I've changed my script now so that it can cope with that (swapping them around before tarring up), but that still leaves one question:
Where is the app-defaults directory supposed to live? The FHS doesn't really cover this. Hans-Joachim -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
