Re: FC3 (and beyond) wishlist
Once upon a time, Peter Backlund <peter.backlund(a)home.se> said:
The approach of using one file per configuration entry instead of
one
monolithic config file is IMO better in most cases, and several
applications have adopted this fairly recently (apt, ld at least).
I think it would be beneficial to do this in as many cases as possible.
Candidates include:
- grub
The problem with this one is that order is meaningful. How do you
decide which one comes first with a random collection of files? I
suppose you could use a system of symlinks or something (but then GRUB
can't live on a non-Unix FS), but it is getting complicated for
something that (hopefully) doesn't change much.
