Yes, you're right ... I charged that :-)
except for the docs ( they're _only_ in /usr/doc)
and for the mqueue (it's _only_ in /var/qmail)
So there are max 2 locations for each file somewhere on your fs,
either the fsstnd place or in /var/qmail, or both. Still with me ?
The docs and the man-pages don't refer to these fsstnd locations at all,
so it's all just very confusing. If it's not fsstnd, don't fake it, and if you
do fake it, do it right.
Overall conclusion: _don't_use_the_rpm_to_install_qmail_
At least, not my build, which was done by [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sorry david.
For clarity, here's exactly what it did:
-------------
> # mkdir /var/qmail
> # mkdir /etc/qmail/control
> # ln -s /etc/qmail/control /var/qmail/control
> # mkdir /usr/bin/qmail
> # ln -s /usr/bin/qmail /var/qmail/bin
-------
It didn't do this:
> # mkdir /usr/doc/qmail
> # ln -s /usr/doc/qmail /var/qmail/doc
-------------
and it didn't do this:
> # mkdir /var/qmailq
> # ln -s /var/qmailq /var/qmail/queue
