Subject: [PATCH 2/2] conffile: allow /usr/etc to provide any config files expected in /etc
Date: Mon, 20 Nov 2023 13:52:28 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231120025354.17511-3-neilb@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231120025354.17511-1-neilb@suse.de>

If any config file is configured to be in /etc, also read from /usr/etc.
This followed a growing trend of moving as much as possible out of /
and into /usr.

See https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_UsrEtc
