Well, the FHS doesn't define things like ~/bin, ~/lib, ~/share, ~/include, or /opt/bin, /opt/lib, /opt/share, /opt/include. In fact, the FHS specifies that packages that get installed into /opt are installed into /opt/<package> or /opt/<provider> directories. (And I think that /opt, as defined in the FHS, is more like Local than Network, but that's beside the point.) I suspect that what may end up happening is that, if GNUstep Make gets FHS compatibility bits put into it, it will have to install to FHS locations like /usr/lib, /usr/share, /usr/include for the System and Local domains, but stick with the traditional hierarchy for Network and User domains. Which is going to be really ugly. But that's just a guess. -- Hubert Chan - email & Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
