Come on Ville, I already gave an example in the first mail and you agreed that this can be done that way. Then you started mumbling things about fragile and whatnot. If it's done correct by the packager it is not fragile. And after all it shouldn't had been under /srv in the first place to start with. This discussion is very old and you were aware that one day this could be formalized. If every packager that didn't like a decision from the FPC would fall on its back and say "Show me, I don't knwo how it's done", then we wouldn't have any possible progress in the guidelines. Anyway I'm not the FPC, the FPC will hold its meeting on this (or already did) and will cast a decision. One hopefully leaving /srv to the user/admin. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
