So you are happy with the mess? Like why is metacity in /usr/bin why should anyone have it in his path? It just pollutes directory FHS says that /usr/bin is just "Most user commands" not all! and while FHS is bad document that no one should take seriously, Gentoo insists doing changes "to improve adherence to standards (FHS/LSB)", yet breaks it anyway on many occasions. Situation will worsen with QT4/KDE4 /usr/lib is another fine mess Gentoo has got me into ;) And no, gobo is not an option, Gentoo's /usr/bin is a mess but Gentoo is the best messy linux I have run since 1995-6 can't remember exactly ;) started with Redhat 4.0 . I have used gentoo since 0.9x days, quite a while now. -- ykä at home -- [email protected] mailing list
