I don't think removing mkdirhier just for these reasons is a good idea since we would have to check/update multiple packages accordingly. Fortunately, the manpage of mkdirhier it pretty clear about mkdir -p being enough/better. So we can expect that very few people will start using mkdirhier nowadays. "mkdirhier is a wrapper for mkdir; systems with mkdir(__osmansuffix__) implementations conformant with the Single Unix Specification may simply use mkdir -p instead -- this includes all systems using the GNU Core Utilities' version of mkdir." ".... To avoid these problems, use mkdir -p instead, or do not use mkdirhier to create directories in parts of the filesystem where untrusted users can manipulate them." Feel free to ask upstream to remove mkdirhier anyway :) Brice -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
