Subject: [eudev] RFC... Place (e)udev rules in /etc/udev.d/ (or /etc/eudev.d/)

1 When a bunch of small related config files are required, the trend has
2 been to place them in /etc/<dirname>.d/ and I'm proposing that eudev
3 follow suit. Taking a look at my own system shows...

5 [d531][waltdnes][~] ls -1 /etc | grep "\.d$"
6 conf.d
7 cron.d
8 env.d
9 init.d
10 ld.so.conf.d
11 local.d
12 logrotate.d
13 modprobe.d
14 profile.d
15 sandbox.d
16 sudoers.d
17 xinetd.d

19 Following the pattern seems very logical. Are there any install
20 routines that are hard-coded to dump udev rules in specific directories?
21 If so, we may need to create a symlink from /etc/udev.d/ otherwise, just
22 change the install routines.
