1 Hi all,
2
3 Just a quick heads-up that starting with baselayout-1.11.13 and the
4 revision bumps I just committed for net-wireless/wireless-tools and
5 net-wireless/wpa_supplicant, those utilities will install to / instead
6 of /usr/, allowing people to mount /usr over an IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN
7 (bug #96654).
8
9 Any applications that have hard-coded paths to either the wireless-tools
10 or the wpa_supplicant binaries will have to be changed to work with this
11 change.
12
13 Regards,
14 Brix
