I guess for Red Hat you are right on that. In Debian-land we have: - debconf/dpkg-reconfigure: Used to (re)configure packages themselves. IMO the "right" approach in this case. - update-alternatives: If multiple programs/packages provide the same functionality. What is the default editor, MTA, compiler,... Red Hat provides an alternatives system but AFAIK nothing that is equivalent to the debconf/reconfigure system. Using alternatives seems the right fallback. Red Hat should provide an alternative to their alternatives system, namely rpm-reconfigure ;-) Regards, rck _______________________________________________ drbd-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linbit.com/mailman/listinfo/drbd-user
