No package manager I know stops you from creating and installing a qmail
package that puts the stuff Where Dan Wants Them, and generally respects
http://cr.yp.to/compatibility.html. Since that URL says nothing about
packages[*], and everything about Where Things Go, does this suck?
[*] For _that_, http://cr.yp.to/slashpackage.html. Which doesn't condemn
packages like you did, but suggests a neater way to implement them.
