Well, we should care, I think, since if not we're responsible for ensuring the modified source remains available...this could be offloaded to sourceforge, etc, but I'm not sure we want a _real_ fork. It's convoluted due to the fact that the upstream package is chkconfig which includes other tools for RHEL-based distros in addition to the alternatives bit. > Although really, it seems like such a relatively small set of > functionality that we actually care about, that we'd probably be > better just tossing it and doing our own implementation in a > system-normal-shell script. already, a good chunk of what we care > about in it, is in "our own code", by virtue of the class action > script wrappers. While that may be, somebody still has to actually care enough to do it. -Ben -- Ben Walton Systems Programmer - CHASS University of Toronto C:416.407.5610 | W:416.978.4302 _______________________________________________ maintainers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.opencsw.org/mailman/listinfo/maintainers .:: This mailing list's archive is public. ::.
