Package: cpmtools
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 9.1.1
Hi.
I might have spotted a policy violation here (therefore the sevirity serious).
Policy section 9.1.1. specifies:
"The location of all installed files and directories must comply with the
Filesystem Hierarchy
Standard (FHS), version 2.3, with the exceptions noted below,..."
The FHS in turn specifies:
"The following files, or symbolic links to files, must be in /sbin if the
corresponding subsystem is installed:
...
fsck.*
mkfs.*
"
(see http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SPECIFICOPTIONS8).
As far as I can tell this is not the case, right?
I also do not see any exception for this in section 9.1.1.
I don't judge whether /sbin is really a better location,.... just wanted to
bring this to your
attention :)
Cheers,
Chris.
