Hi!
FHS v2.3 chapter 2[1] states, in part:
| "Static" files include binaries, libraries, documentation files
| and other files that do not change without system administrator
| intervention
Later on, section about /etc states, in part:
| The /etc hierarchy contains configuration files. A "configuration file"
| [...] must be static
[1] http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#THEFILESYSTEM
[2] http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#ETCHOSTSPECIFICSYSTEMCONFIGURATION
cupsys writes data to /etc/cups/ppds.dat: this file should
be moved elsewhere (/var/something?).
Moving the file will be useful, once FHS 2.3 compliance is mandated by
Policy (currently FHS 2.1 compliance is required).
Thanks for your attention.
