| 34 | <PRE>><i>Attached is a patch I'm currently using in the package - I've not | |
| 35 | </I>><i>finished testing it, but the idea is that things like modules, config | |
| 36 | </I>><i>files, language files and the helpfiles are opened only in one place, so | |
| 37 | </I>><i>are easy to relocate. Anything else can be fixed with absolute paths in | |
| 38 | </I>><i>the config files. | |
| 39 | </I> | |
| 40 | Thanks for the patch, but after some thought I've decided I'm not going | |
| 41 | to make Services FHS-compliant, so I'll have to ask you to make those | |
| 42 | changes as a distribution-local patch. It looks like the changes you | |
| 43 | propose are sufficient, but the binary-plus-single-data-directory scheme | |
| 44 | has been part of Services since the earliest versions, and I'm reluctant | |
| 45 | to make such a change to the design without a thorough review of all | |
| 46 | potential effects of the change, which I'm afraid I no longer have time | |
| 47 | for at this point. | |
| 48 | ||
| 49 | I have, however, added support for alternate installation paths and | |
| 50 | changing the executable name to the next beta, which should be out soon. | |
