10 I haven't read GLEP 20 for some time now, so my apologies if this is
11 clear in my original draft.
12
13 My original intention for the srvdir USE flag was to cope with these
14 two situations:
15
16 a) Apps that have compile-time paths that can't be overridden w/
17 runtime configuration
18 b) Apps that have runtime configuration, which we could setup to work
19 with /srv out of the box.
20
21 I don't believe that it's practical to specify a layout for /srv that
22 fits everyone. I use /srv/<fqdn>/<service> on some of the boxes I
23 look after, but some of them run /srv/<customer>/<fqdn>/<service>
24 instead.
25
26 Which packages do you want to add the srvdir global USE flag for?
27
28 Best regards,
29 Stu
