[gentoo-dev] /etc/udev/rules.d nightmare - orphaned files in /etc

[Sven Köhler]

Hi,

i had some orphaned files in /etc/udev/rules.d. Namely 40-fuse.rules and
 60-fuse.rules.

The files were never removed, since they are protected - aren't they?

So that is _very_, _very_ unpractical, because the older your gentoo
gets, the more of such orphaned files you get.

Have you ever thought about sollutions of that problem? It's not a real
problem, that these files are orphaned - but they are neither removed
nor renamed, so they stay in place and in one or the other way, they may
start to disturb.

So how about renaming them from <file> to ._cfgsave_<file>?


Anyway, this really asks for a sollution.
