This is not a solution. I want that the programs natively using this database. Ok much work but it could be a nice future I think.

To my knowledge env-update relies on nothing else but bash and python, note that this it a statically compiled version of python which doesn't need any system libs. Maybe I'm overlooking something though. > cool could it be to store all settings from /etc in binary files. But > that is not your way and not very fsh-compatible - I know.

This is not very user-friendly.=20 How could you possible unify the style of all the configuration files? This means that you'd have to track all the config formats of all libraries and applications together with their options and write a unified wrapper interface on top of them. I really can't see the benefit of that, and I don't dare to imagine the sheer nightmare of trying to maintain and update this. > Some other idea is to use the sheme of ksyscoca (like KDE-2.2).
