"defaults" are usually set to be whatever is used most commonly. my non-quantified belief is that most of our packages that have config files, are/should have them in /etc/opt/csw If so, then the default should point to there. > And this leaves the user at the point that i mentioned initially. "Mhh, > there are configuration files in two places. Where is the one for > package foo located?". a good point. I'll update our User guide to mention to check both locations. _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers
