Hi,
I made debian packages for netkit.
Netkit looks for the environment variable NETKIT_HOME in any script, but
that's not very handy if you install in debian as it forces users to set
a variable that points in a well defined place.
I thought to install in /usr/share/netkit so that it would be nicer to the
user if that's already the default location for NETKIT_HOME.
I could add a line in any script:
NETKIT_HOME=${NETKIT_HOME:-/usr/share/netkit}
or I could force to read /etc/netkit.conf where such a default could be
set
Any suggestion/feeling?
Both the aforementioned solutions require a patch, are you interested in
it and in the debian config for the package(s)?
thanks
sandro
