It breaks if homedirs are auto-mounted or NFS mounted with rootsquash, if home directories are mounted at a different base directory, it does nothing for /root/.texlive/, it can screw up environments with NFS mounted directories on multiple operating systems, etc., etc., etc. A little shell script of "upgrade-fmt-files' would be vastly safer for individuals as needed. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
