Hi all, How come gentoo doesn't follow the File Hierarcy Standard (FHS) more closely? For example, there are provisions in FHS to use /var/cache for stuff which applicatons can recreate if it doesn't exist (the the administrator can purge the directory at will). Putting /usr/portage/distfiles/ there seems obvious to me. But having edb/world in there (with all memory of your world configuations) seems not to smart.
What's the philosophy around this? Shouldn't edb live in e.g. /var/lib? Cheers, /Anders -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
