Shouldn't this just match the Menu Spec's File locations section [1], which describes where these files go? Or should we just clarify datadir to mean $prefix/share and sysconfdir to mean $prefix/etc, or /etc when $prefix is /usr? Should this all be done in a spec outside the Menu Spec? Don't "we" already do this outside the Menu Spec, in the Linux Standards Base Filesystem Hierarchy Standard document? -- dobey [1] http://standards.freedesktop.org/menu-spec/1.0/ar01s02.html _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
