Not too problematic as long as that file has a name that make identification easy. I think having the default configuration values written in a default configuration file under /usr is better than having them harcoded, since it makes it really easier to determine what these defaults are. But not shipping the user configuration file, I do not know, that seems ugly somehow. At least the possibility to write a configuration file should be documented, ideally with a manpage. -- ,--. : /` ) Tanguy Ortolo <xmpp:[email protected]> <irc://irc.oftc.net/Elessar> | `-' Debian Maintainer \_ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
