They get automatically added.

No. During installation of package, I filter out the files in /etc and add them to a sfic database. sfic --add default.tdb $etc_in_pkg When I look for what to backup, I generate a new database from current /etc. sfic -R --add temp.tdb /etc Then I compare current with default. That way, files existing in /etc that is not in any package shows up as "Added". If you remove a file it Shows up as "Deleted". If you chage it, it shows up as "Updated". > When you use something like a .local file you can list the etc/ > hostapd directory and all files will be taken into account. > > How do you handle this? see above. but in addition, I can specifically tell lbu to add files that are outside the /etc. That is done with "lbu add". for example: mkdir /nfs touch /nfs/.keep lbu add /nfs/.keep lbu commit floppy Now will /nfs/.keep be added and the /nfs dir is also added.
