But this way for every distro the workaround needs to be created again instead of sharing the work/knowledge. I do not like this very much. Also I do not see much punishment in case there is a hook that only returns 1 instead of not beeing there at all. And also you already showed how easy it is to remove hooks that you may not need for your distro. Regards, Till
