Did you run the equilalent grep for /var/mail ? I think you should, and then do a diff against both lists to get a more accurate picture of potential compliance problems. balsa for example... matches for both /var/mail and /var/spool/mail I don't see how you can make a judgement about uncompliant behavior based on grep matches for binaries which match both /var/mail and /var/spool/mail. There is nothing in the fhs which says that an application can't look for other directories as well as /var/mail. And any case, if there are applications which are not looking for /var/mail like they should, then they are most likely problems you need to take to the upstream projects if possible and not something Fedora should be fixing with distro specific packaging unless there is no upstream developer to go to. -jef
