The target should be to have rpms only install to /usr and then this rpm DB can live in /usr also. Of course rpm does not support multiple databases... yet. The use-case for a separate /usr is the "shared across multiple machines" use-case. For this use-case /usr is read-only anyway and rpm updates can only be made on the master machine. rpm on the client machines is useless and other mechanisms to keep /etc synchronized have to be used anyway. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.13 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJRWqZtAAoJEANOs3ABTfJw3psQAKidy6RlCSwySo+lLz69a9MM S6G8NJh22yn2blGxp5doFMb6gbVFZTINKCkPKbZQwEsmJJg8nX5zkRI6Zr6m+L1G vj+Bafak1UERTRjVgnZPAzbju5hKIT9ATXLyBY3yyLxQ1N6+wXrX2rZMOsIZCjgA pHMM7Y3e/agQvQKiVtYHReThyj270la+JeZZmMpwFyyXGHPYZICuAh3Uc32d/V2j xRoxvanbePFhFwSvTfwcPTkYp/L2G9lTtS25aA51paWdBgM/UStOTbGwO2LInJv2 aBILDBhMVdjr+IbNErnLJ1N9xlxqJ7Id4n3gv9X7JR3tDyg0ashauhBUPIJc9PSs Sv/jOZbRktER+JUHDbU/RFozDAEW8kUkJt2NapRCN4X913J4cwpUBMXACGPrn8kP ou7oL2CCvUfzHq+I3LdPl9k2g55hMyDL0am4UGWSLCDN88sx7PrYOfsInJ5x6SpY o0PWAnrfg7FTAJAZ71Q8gjHsP2HooNWEkWurmnHYwBh1Dt8dXop24jyKjTLNvtcg 5FuPJSUTVerkE0KoYWtlD3sHIA0IGazhZs1MBil1OOmATxIaLEQtUM2uXUS7ocwT qp8+xcKuNkGiVgFUGUqxzXLMzs4P3mcsm/WfbaILBg2PeTAa+Y2sbgoNiCqYUErh rFqk4nTHuZPHeANwTKD7 =q8pE -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
