That's not the sentence (if you're going to quote something, make sure you quote the whole thing); you left out the rest: "but must not modify or delete software installed by the local system administrator without the assent of the local system administrator." Since package management tools don't have any good way to obtain the assent of the system adminitrator before overwriting files in /opt, distributions steer clear of /opt. -- Chris Adams <cmadams@xxxxxxxxxx> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
