Re: "goals" for slink: FHS



Hi,

	I don't like this proposal. This implies that if you want even
 one package that depends on fhs, you end up moving stuff
 indiscriminately into the new locations.

	Why can't we do it on a package by package basis, and have man
 and info look in all possible locations?

	We are supposed to revert to compatibility between released
 and unstable distributions, so that people may mix and match packages
 at will.

	I instead proposae that we put modified man info packages both
 in slink, and in hamm-updates (or 2.0 r2, or whatever), so that peole
 can keep a hamm system, but select a few from slink.

	I see absolutely no justutfication in not retaining
 compatibility between both distributions.

	manoj
