[discussion about conffiles/configuration files]
I just read the whole tread and now I'm really confused 8-) Are there
real questions you are talking about or is this just for fun?? (Sorry, I
couldn't resist ;-)
Let me just comment on one clear question I've seen in the discussion:
Should game's score files be tagges as conffile? I think the answer is
clear: `no'.
Recall, that we discussed how to handle `variable data files which are not
edited by humans but by scripts/programs' a few days/weeks ago. The result
of the discussion was that `conffiles' may only be edited by humans, not
by scripts. (This result will be included in the next release of the
policy manual.) As score files are clearly edited by a program (i.e., the
game) and not by the user/sysadmin, they must not be marked as conffiles.
Thanks,
Chris
