Working around packaging system norms by asking the use to run code seems uncool to me. A script to produce a config file seems ok. But moving things around means the package will fail checking if the installed files are ok. The point of read only is just that, and I think we have to deal, not resist -- even if that's no my nature either ;_) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
