I agree that the dbus and glib libraries could be moved, but I feel it would be premature to do it now while D-BUS is not being used by many programs (and by no program which has to be executed before /usr is available). The other major problem is that, at least with older udev releases, enabling D-BUS support would introduce a very long delay at boot while udevd was waiting for all udev childs to exit. -- ciao, | Marco | [5013 pe9ltM9oDO/C.] ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
