It's OK for the install to distribute sbin/ files to /sbin/ and /usr/sbin on the target machine as is appropriate. So here's another idea. Try this on for size: I still create an admin/src/ directory and put under that directories for compiled programs. These programs compile their binaries into the admin/sbin directory, or admin/lib if it ever comes to that. The install then would be able to find the things it installs in the sbin/ and etc/ directories as now. I think it is OK to have the src/ directory as an exception. This to some degree mimics the layout on a target system anyhow, that would have a /usr/src directory. -- Steve Williams "The woods are lovely, dark and deep. steve@icarus.com But I have promises to keep, steve@picturel.com and lines to code before I sleep, http://www.picturel.com And lines to code before I sleep." _______________________________________________ Linux-hotplug-devel mailing list http://linux-hotplug.sourceforge.net Linux-hotplug-devel@lists.sourceforge.net http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-hotplug-devel
