Hi all,
Note this entry from the ChangeLog of the newest version of Stunnel:
- Stunnel binary moved from /usr/local/sbin to /usr/local/bin
in order to meet FHS and LSB requirements.
I'm a bit confused by this as the actual stunnel program is only
used by the root user and is started at boot time using an rc
script. Seems this to me is the classic program that belongs in
/usr/sbin.
FHS info:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#USRSBINNONESSENTIALSTANDARDSYSTEMBI
"This directory contains any non-essential binaries used exclusively
by the system administrator. System administration programs that are
required for system repair, system recovery, mounting /usr, or other
essential functions must be placed in /sbin instead."
I didn't check the LSB.
Thoughts from others are requested. Thanks.
