Thank you for this clarification. Development of SCC started on HP-UX where both HP and ISV's like Veritas install software in /opt. I interpreted "add-on" from FHS as "additional" or "non-core" and that caused my confusion. As SCC is intended for system administrators, I will rebase SCC to use /usr/sbin, /etc/scc and /var/lib/scc. regards Siem -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
