I'm a sysadmin and I welcome improvements in software even if it means I have to change how I do things. I really do have bigger things to worry about than some small change in some command line tool. However, I agree with Chris Adams, make things backwards-compatible when it's practical. Putting some wrapper code in chkconfig is exactly the right thing to do. It should be simple (it doesn't have to be perfect, it can ignore --level for example) and it would keep a lot of shell script from breaking. > -jef"I'd tell you to go out and hug a sysadmin but that probably just > get you punched"spaleta "Beware of the sysadmin!" :D /Alexander -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
