And why couldn't those lines check the INSTALL_PROTECT (if that's what |
| 13 |
we'll call it) variable? Including the non-installed files in binary |
| 14 |
packages would work doesn't really have anything to do with whether this |
| 15 |
is implemented as a FEATURE flag or a separate variable. |

The disadvantage of having FEATURE:s for it, is that it will be limited |
| 18 |
to certain directories. Using a configuration variable, people can apply |
| 19 |
it to whatever they want. |
