I certainly hadn't planned to derail or anything like that. And I agree
that the case is nearly automatic-approval. (Although as there are some
changes including new syntax and new reserved words in the shell
language, I think it still fails the automatic approval test, but only
just.)
I would still prefer that the cases were separated -- in fact, as there
are no consumers for the /usr/lib/shell (nothing being put there as part
of *this* case), I'd actually recommend holding off on that until there
is at least one consumer. However, I don't feel strongly enough on it
to take any assertive action on my own.
The issue of /usr/share vs. /usr/lib doesn't seem fully resolved to me
yet, either. (I see reasonable arguments for either case.)
Put another way, I think without /usr/lib/shell, the case can probably
be approved at today's meeting. With /usr/lib/shell, at a minimum we
need to allow for more discussion.
