Gobolinux : Redefining Linux filesystem hierarchy
This is actually a neat idea, and I am saying that as the archetypical, grumpy "I like my sys the way it is, thank you very much!" - kinda guy.A lot of the directory structure of POSIX systems is completely obsolete in the 21st century. The difference between sbin and bin? Historical, for the most part, and irrelevant in the age of rescue systems.One question that is nagging at my mind with this: What if two programs require the same lib, how is this resolved?Because, when I install progA, the lib is symlinked into the index, so when I now install progB, the lib is installed again if I understood correctly. Storage is irrelevant, the pkg manager sees there is a symlink, so it stays in place, all is well.But now I remove progA, so what happens? progB is still present, still requires the lib, it is also still installed, but now the symlink, which refered to /Programs/progA/libs/thelib.so is broken. How is this situation handled?
