HAL can just copy it over to its own namespace, then it's owned by HAL.
Hmm, I guess we're arguing details right now.... which means we basically agree
:-)
Yes, I think so. I'm not arguing about the general idea about the error
handling. I just would like to see pm-utils quite separate from HAL. It's
easier to maintain and less complex this way IMO.
I don't think it matters much whether we do
1. pm-suspend --log-to-file /var/lib/hal/foo
or
2. pm-suspend --enable-logging
mv /var/lib/pm-utils/logfile /var/lib/hal/foo
or
3. pm-suspend --log-to-stderr 2> /var/lib/hal/foo
apart from the fact that solution 3.
a) seems cleaner (no inherent knowledge where the log file for pm-utils
is stored); and
b) easily enables people to port HAL to platforms where pm-utils isn't
available (think e.g. Win32 where it's not really desirable to port
pm-utils and all of it deps (bourne shell) to).
So I'd like option 3. to be what we use. Anyway, we're arguing details here.
