Before we release 0.2.3 can we place make ayttm compliant with the FHS?
Per the FHS /usr/share is for Architecture-independent data... meaning
it is the incorrect place to place loadable modules:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/2.2/fhs-4.11.html
Rather applications that have architecture independent data that is only
used by it should create a single subdirectory under /usr/lib:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/2.2/fhs-4.7.html
Attached is a patch to switch to using /usr/lib/ayttm for the modules.
Also attached is a perl script for fixing the module path in the
configuration file.
I've been running the equivalent of this patch and using this script in
my rpm for a while so it should be safe.
Thanks.
