The use home directory shouldn't have non dot files (or directories) used by the applications. (There are allready the Desktop and GNUstep directories, but in my opinion they shouldn't be there). Reason is that the user home directory should be manually managed by the user solely, in order to keep a clear distinction between what is under the responsibility of the user and what may also be touched or used by applications. A user may still do links at will. And apps can go and look within dot files/directories and make directories appear even though they are not at a given filesystem location. -- Pat -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
