Thanks for the history :) I always thought it strange to put site- in /usr/local since /usr/local already implies site/system-wide packages. Same for dist- since /usr already implies distribution packages. I find it weird that site- gets used in ~/ since they are clearly user packages not site/system-wide packages. Any thoughts on that? -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
