Please take a moment to read through http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/InitScripts
Question: what right do we have to destroy our users initscripts when they changed? There has been an expectation for a number of years, in a number of packages that if an initscript that has changed it will be preserved on updates.. So why should we change that? After reading through this entire thread, I just really don't not see *any* valid reason or justification why packages maintainer can do anything (and everything!) to preserver things like initscripts, if and only if they have changed... especially since thats has been the expectation for many, many years... So to than end... if even if this initscript policy stands, there is a very real chance I am simply going to ignore it... for one reason and one reason only.... I *care* more about my users configuration files (including their initscripts) that I do some *#$S policy... And I bet my users will thank me for that.. esp the ones what have there initscirpts save! steved. -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
