Since the issue's been raised, I've nothing against this proposal. We want = to=20 counter the possible future problem of other packages following kde's lead= =20 and supporting multiple versions in separate directories, because many=20 directories under /usr really is messy. E.g., create a /usr/packages and put qt, kde and anything else there=20 (/usr/packages/kde/3.2; ...). Who wants to take this proposal to the FHS=20 people? :-) =2D-=20 Dan Armak Gentoo Linux developer (KDE) Matan, Israel Public GPG key: http://dev.gentoo.org/~danarmak/danarmak-gpg-public.key =46ingerprint: DD70 DBF9 E3D4 6CB9 2FDD 0069 508D 9143 8D5F 8951 --nextPart1627311.7e0o0NQr7H Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBBTvn8UI2RQ41fiVERAs25AJ0X95ng7Vkjg/gW68X7aBJ1ftWOMQCfSJR7 FkC7C84vmJ811LV6N8o67i0= =M3Wg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart1627311.7e0o0NQr7H--
