Can you quantify:

1) How many of your customers things are going to break
2) What change will do the breaking
3) How long it takes to fix

Every time thiss stupid conversation comes up, it's all about
hand-waving to explain why Solaris has to break.

Please, hire a grad student specializing in HCI or usability and give
them access to sun's customers and give us a write-up in a year about
what the real costs vs. benefits are for these changes instead of this
bogosity.

Or, perhaps as I suggested in my last email, a SUNWunFkdusr package
with a /usr that doesn't actually need /usr/xpg?/ to work decently,
and then you can (horror of horrors) let your customers make a
decision.
