This problem is not specific to architecture-dependent data. If your home is exported via NFS, applications from different systems (possibly of the same architecture) may access it. You may in particular end up with conflicting versions of the same application. For instance, an older version could systematically 'erase' new settings from a configuration file that it shares with the newer version, because it does not understand them those settings. Or it might simply fail to start completely due to syntactical problems So I don't really get your point against 'lib'. It seems more like a point against sharing home directories within an heterogenous set of systems altogether. -- Rémi Denis-Courmont http://www.remlab.net/ http://fi.linkedin.com/in/remidenis _______________________________________________ xdg mailing list xdg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xdg
