include /sbin, /usr/sbin and /usr/local/sbin in user's default path. That way, filesystem standard compliance is not disturbed, and the users have those programs in their path by default. Thanks, __ Eray Ozkural

onfig" is a system program, and a user should manually augment his path if he wishes to run it. I request you to re-consider the proposal. Supplying a symbolic link would be better than putting the /sbin in user's path, because we may then decide which programs in /sbin are needed by normal users. Thanks, __ Eray Ozkural

rized in a way similar to the one I have suggested for the Release process. Package pools, of course, is the main issue here. It is *the* mechanism which lets developers create their own virtual distros, etc. This proposal lays out a way to combine the flexibiliy of package pools with the qual

That is, you would certainly like some consistency and reliability, but not at the cost of missing a huge proportion of good software out there. That's what distribution is all about, right?

manageable. It seems to me that both part-of and is-a hierarchies (allowing multiple inheritance) is necessary to break down Debian into comprehensible units. In addition to this, such a categorization would be vertical to main/contrib/non-free separation -+++-+++-++-++-++
