------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Apr 4 05:19:02 -0700 2005 ------- I am not sure but I think that %ghost files and directories do not conflict. But you should not use the same path anyway because RPM has problems to replace symlinks with a file or directory, so it won't be simple to install a real package intead of the symlink. Hmm, I thought about to do something like our python or java packages do. For example, the python package is actually installed into /usr/lib/python2.4 and a compat symlink /usr/lib/python -> python2.4 is created. You install OOo into /opt/openoffice.org1.9.90. So, you could create a compat link /opt/openoffice.org1.9 -> openoffice.org1.9.90. Well, I do not say that this is better than /etc/openoffice.org-1.9. I can only say, that I have never seen such symlinks directly in /etc. But I saw such symlinks in the /usr subdirectories, for example: /usr/X11 -> X11R6 /usr/lib/X11 -> ../X11R6/lib/X11 /usr/lib/python -> python2.4 /usr/lib/jvm/jre-1.4.2-sun -> java-1.4.2-sun-1.4.2.06/jre However, java packages (provided by the JPakcage project, http://www.jpackage.org/) create similar symlinks below the directory /etc/alternatives now. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
