As far as I've seen, a properly coded .list file ensures that any directory and/or files in my .list file won't get backed up by other packages like local.lrp. Isn't that the case? My pfw.lrp lives entirely under /usr/local and doesn't get backed up in local.lrp. > The lrp file format > prevents many of the cleanup issues that led to a filesystem standard > being attempted in the first place, I've seen Charles discuss the deficiences of the .list file.

'which' is always going to be a popular command :) Matt _______________________________________________ Leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
