Summary: Review Request: gnustep-make - GNUstep makefile package https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=197649 ------- Additional Comments From Axel.Thimm@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-07-08 06:02 EST ------- (In reply to comment #4) > I did not mean that any packages should be installed to /usr/local, but just > that if the stuff is set up so that things are blindly installed to some dirs > without creating the dirs, /usr/local/GNUstep is probably not the only case > affected. You mean subdirectories? In the case of the pure non-fhs setup, again only the root directory of the "local root" is created. So all I did is adjust the path. The purest packaging would dwell into it and fully convert it to FHS, and that's what I was aiming for at the beginning. But I followed up archived discussions on the pain and "impossibility" involved, as well as the "strong opinion" of upstream to not accept patches for Linux/Unix targets. Debian for example maintained a larger fhs-patch which needed adjustments on each upstream release and after the package was never being updated they consider dropping gnustep-make due to that burden. If it weren't needed as a build dependency for further packages, I would had done the same. :/ In a nutshell: I need to move out the /usr/local like bits of gnustep-make to avoid default user installs under /usr and this seems the least intrusive way to do so.
