Rafael Guterres Jeffman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License:
Package: GoboLinux Scripts
System name: goboscripts
Type: non-GNU
Description:
GoboLinux is a GNU/Linux distribution that breaks with the historical Unix directory
hierarchy. Basically, this means that there are no directories such as /usr and /etc.
The main idea of the alternative hierarchy is to store all files belonging to an
application in its own separate subtree; therefore we have directories such as
/Programs/GCC/2.95.3/lib.
To allow the system to find these files, they are logically grouped in directories
such as /System/Links/Executables, which, you guessed it, contains symbolic links to
all executable files inside the Programs hierarchy. To maintain backwards
compatibility with traditional Unix and GNU/Linux apps, there are symbolic links that
mimic the Unix tree, such as \\\"/usr/bin -> /System/Links/Executables\\\", and
\\\"/sbin -> /System/Links/Executables\\\" (this example shows that arbitrary
differentiations between files of the same category were also removed).
The core of GoboLinux is its scripts that are used to maintain the integrity of the
system as a whole and to help administrators to perform their tasks easily.
The GoboLinux distribution can be found on the web at http://gobolinux.org and is not
the target of this project, only the scripts (core system and boot scripts) are.
