Dear Debian Developers, we are planning to update our CYBOP Debian packages. CYBOP contains the XML-based language CYBOL and its interpreter CYBOI, written in C: CYBOL applications are pure XML; binaries do not exist. They are run "live" by CYBOI, which interprets them. In other words, CYBOL files are the source + executable + configuration of an application, at the same time, all in one. My questions: 1 Where best to place CYBOL application files in the UNIX file hierarchy? I thought about /usr/share, but may be /usr/lib suits better or what else? 2 What about CYBOL libraries (containing graphical components, for example)? They are pure XML, too. To /usr/lib or better to /usr/share?
If the apps & libraries are pure XML (and hence arch-independent), our current policy[1] suggests that you put them in /usr/share/xml/cybol or /usr/share/xml/CYBOL.
Hope that helps... Cheers, Mark [1] Working draft XML policy: http://debian-xml-sgml.alioth.debian.org/xml-policy
