mandatory files in /etc
hi,
As part of the testing of the fhs aspects of the LSB I've noticed
that the spec mandates presence of certain files in /etc which do not
appear to be on several Linux machines that I've tried the tests
out on. In some cases perhaps the files should not be required
at all, in some cases (networking files) they would appear
to need to be made conditional on the feature being configured.
FHS Section 3.4 /etc, files mandated:
3.4-4 disktab
3.4-15 mtools
Should this be /etc/mtools.conf
3.4-21 ttytype
3.4-24 gateways
3.4-32 networks
I'd appreciate feedback on whether any of these should be
considered issues in the FHS spec?
If so I can feed these back to Dan for consideration for the next
FHS draft, and I can update the test to output a warning result
and note the issue, until the issue is resolved.
thanks
regards
Andrew
