Well, I think it's good to follow the FHS whenever possible, if only to keep the installer environment recognizable for developers and users. But if there are good reasons not to, then I agree violating it is not a major issue. We do try to follow the FHS, although we're not as strict as we could be in differentiating between (/usr)/(s)bin directories (as it makes zero effective difference for D-I), and also between /usr/lib, /usr/share and to a lesser extend /var. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-boot-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
