I think it's worth noting the ideal and actual usage, yes. We probably
don't need to specify all of what is in a directly, that's what 'ls' is
for. But we can give people some clever steps to learn more, e.g.:
"To find out what a binary 'foo' is, there are several methods of
research:
man foo
or
info foo
show manual and info pages for 'foo'.
Since software in Fedora all comes in a package, looking to see where
'foo' came from can be useful:
which foo
/usr/bin/foo
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/bin/foo
foo-2.7-1.3.fc6
Packages also have some useful information, especially where the binary
is a non-obvious component in a larger package:
rpm -qi foo
To find out what other packages need that package:
rpm -q --whatrequires foo
I already documented some of this in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate.
Are we including NTFS now?
Yes, we are. The userspace ntfs-3g is now in Fedora Extras.
