Or from another Mageia host with a stock rm over NFS or similar, or from a
non-Mageia client via Samba, sftp or fish etc., DAV or any of the non-
commandline ways of deleting a file.


And another problem with "secure erase" both on tool and filesystem level...

It wont work on SSDs due to their firmware implemented wear leveling ...

really think srm should stay as parallell installable with original rm intact.
