Maybe a naive comment, but I would say that there should be a list of all the benefits for any change, being it / -> /usr or /usr -> /, then deciding which is the Right Thing™ would be "easier" (doing so we can also document our choices). So THANK YOU Marco for explaining (another) one for / -> /usr, I was thinking of asking Roger about it [1] before reading your reply ;-) [1] <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=652011#93> Thx, bye, Gismo / Luca
