# rpm -q --changelog mailman
- constant files under /usr/lib/mailman, variable files under /var/lib/mailman
# rpm -ql mailman | grep mm_c
/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py
WTF? Why config of mailman (mm_cfg.py) abide in /usr/ ?
^^^^^^
man hier says:
/usr This directory is usually mounted from a separate partition. It should
hold only sharable, read-only data, so that it can be mounted by various
machines running Linux.
I use my own script for reconfiguring mailman config. Now my script is not
right - /usr may be read-only mounted, for example.
As I know, all configs must be in /etc directory.
PS: also I not like the next fact - in MandrakeLinux 9.2 rc1 mailman config
abide in /var, but in release it shange its place - this is not good thing.
