- Date: 1 Jun 2005 09:08:07 -0000
Some complex applications have binaries outside of standard binaries
directories, such as %{_libdir}/%{name}/bin. For instance, mailman and
mozart have this setup. I wonder what is the best practice for having
them in PATH anyway.
For mailman, I symlinked every binaries from /usr/lib/mailman/bin to
/usr/sbin, as in the debian package. For mozart, the upstream package
use files in /etc/profile.d for extending PATH.
Is there any reason to prefer one of the method or the other ?
