Does it matter? Is it worth investing time into investigating this? Or are we not really considering moving to the proposed Jackson filesystem layout? (In which case it's probably not worth investing time to look what SuSE did in detail.) And the more important question: how often do we want to rehash the usrmerge discussion? At some point we should stick with a decision and not endlessly restart discussions (unless something really significant changes, but I don't think this is the case). *mumble* leadership something *mumble* If we want to restart discussions, we can talk about init system support in Debian and costs/benefits of supporting some of them. :-) Ansgar
