Wrong: since you have to copy the whole file to override it, and files in /lib have no conffiles handling, after an upgrade you will not know what was changed by you and what was changed upstream. Obviously this is not a problem for Red Hat since they do not support upgrades between major releases. -- ciao, Marco
