What would the tree look like? (was Re: er)

[Jim Lynch <jim@laney.edu>]

Hi,

>From the description "arch dep goes in /usr/lib/<pkg>/examples
<emphasize> with symlink to /usr/doc/<pkg>/examples </emphasize>",
I cannot visualize the tree. For one, how would one distinguish
arch-indep stuff from the arch-specific?

                   /
                   |
                  usr
                   |
           ------------------
           |                |
          lib              doc
           |                |
       <package>        <package>
           |                |
       examples          examples
  __                          __
  |                             7  ("examples" off of "lib/<package>" 
  |        \             ^      |   is symlink)
  L_        \___________/     __|

             === OR ===

  __                          __
  |                             7 ("examples" off of "doc/<package>" 
  |        ^             /      |  is symlink)
  L_        \___________/     __|


Is this what you are suggesting? or more like this:

                   /
                   |
                  usr
                   |
           ------------------
           |                |
          lib              doc
           |                |
       <package>        <package>
           |                |
       examples          examples
           ^                |
           |              arch
           |   . . . -------|------- . . .
           |               i386 <--- symlink
           ^              /
            \____________/ 

Or ?
