Thanks for you reply. In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> you write: >Considering the design of the Hurd, and the nature of the /usr symlink, I >don't expect too much trouble with it.

I have just two questions - if a package breaks because it doesn't support /usr as a symlink, are we able to change the Debian source, or do we need a seperate source package for Debian? There seems to be some debate as to whether we should remove /usr as a symlink later on - I will stay out of this for now, but has anyone considered (yet) what needs to be altered in Debian packages for this to work? If not, then I will...
