Package: debian-policy Version: 3.7.2.2 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Policy section 10.2 currently states that packages installing libraries into private directories should edit /etc/ld.so.conf directly. There now seems to be an /etc/ld.so.conf.d directory into which packages can drop files that are included from the main /etc/ld.so.conf file. Having a package drop a file into that directory seems easier than having everyone re-implement the logic to correctly edit /etc/ld.so.conf, so should this become the recommended behaviour? - -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (530, 'testing'), (520, 'unstable'), (510, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-3-k7 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFF2bpXshl/216gEHgRAmNmAKCF0YAtpL7XsvTyNgK7E6NM0O5z5gCgmmFG oLS7pPfU8MY6UP0JyuNYDiM= =r8NN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
