I think the best solution is to provide them both ways. Baselayout to |
| 17 |
provide early allocation on new systems, and acct-*/ to provide proper |
| 18 |
upgrade path for new systems and dependencies in packages. This will |
| 19 |
become necessary at some point anyway since otherwise you won't be able |
| 20 |
to add users to baselayout groups. |
