In my opinion, copying application's files to a webroot is something, which I could do myself. Instead of constructing a long commandline for webapp-config some little 'cp' commands could do the same. Hardlinking the files saves space, but then I can't modify the sources without affecting other installations of the same version.
Instead of the default /var directory I always created a /www dir, in which all my sites live. That way I can have a dedicated partition for my sites and limit /var to about 5-10GB at the same time. It's a great pity that the mysql ebuild also installs it's datadir into the /var tree. Perhaps something like /usr/mysql would be better for this. But this would need a general discussion about the use of /var. Christian Jesse, Rich schrieb: > Hmmmm...not very constructive criticism, but I tend to agree.
