Subject: [gentoo-dev] changing /usr/games structure to match the fhs?

1 Hi,
2
3 the current way games are installed seems quite inconsistent to me. you
4 have /usr/games/bin and /usr/games/lib but no /usr/games/share. shared
5 data goes to /usr/share/games. so it's not that all games files are
6 stored within /usr/games. what is the idea behind only storing plattform
7 dependant data within /usr/games?
8 What about changes the games eclass to use /usr/games and /usr/lib/games
9 instead of /usr/games/bin and /usr/games/lib as the fhs proposes?
10 (remember the unix filesystem structure is not about grouping files by
11 application or application class like a windows filesystem is)
