Your attitude is irrelevant as well. This discussion is not about you. It is about whether /usr as a separate partition has problems in the general case. > > Ok, that's my perception.

I have no interest to speak on behalf of Red Hat and from a personal viewpoint, I have no interest in a separate /usr partition. Fedora is a project that Red Hat participates in and where majority of packages are maintained by volunteers. It is not a commercial product. Fedora explicitly has a goal to stay close to upstream as much as possible. If there are changes being made to this, it would have to be made upstream regardless of who is driving it. > Err, Red Hat _is_ being paid to fix software, or at least refuse to > accept upstream changes w/o insisiting upon modifications, by those > who purchase RHEL. Does RHEL have this (at least perceived) problem? I have no idea what you are talking about here with regards to modifications nor do I know of any customer paying Red Hat to fix this perceived problem.
