IMO packages should always use /lib/ (or +eventually /usr/lib/) for such things. I've been pushing for this proper +separation for a while. udev and systemd do it properly although we do +still ship several udev files in /etc/udev/rules.d/ in packages which +should, by rights, be in /lib/udev/rules.d/ + +dbus upstream is still a big offender with policy files often ending up +in /etc/dbus-1/system.d/ rather than in a /lib/ tree. This can and does +sometimes have security implications, e.g. with the privilege escalation +I recently reported regarding sectool: +<A HREF="https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809437">https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=809437</A> + +The policy file in question was marked with %config(noreplace) as it was +in /etc. But really this is a policy file which shouldn't be modified by +users. Therefore it shouldn't be marked as noreplace and it shouldn't +live in /etc/ + + +So, if the /lib/modprobe.d/ dir isn't parsed by kmod, we should fix kmod. + +That's my opinion anyway :) + +Col + +-- + +Colin Guthrie +colin(at)mageia.org +<A HREF="http://colin.guthr.ie/">http://colin.guthr.ie/</A> + +Day Job: + Tribalogic Limited <A HREF="http://www.tribalogic.net/">http://www.tribalogic.net/</A> +Open Source: + Mageia Contributor <A HREF="http://www.mageia.org/">http://www.mageia.org/</A> + PulseAudio Hacker <A HREF="http://www.pulseaudio.org/">http://www.pulseaudio.org/</A> + Trac Hacker <A HREF="http://trac.edgewall.org/">http://trac.edgewall.org/</A> + + +</PRE> + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="016480.html">[Mageia-dev] [changelog] [RPM] cauldron core/release nfs-utils-1.2.6-2.mga3 +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="016507.html">[Mageia-dev] [changelog] [RPM] cauldron core/release nfs-utils-1.2.6-2.mga3 +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#16495">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#16495">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#16495">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#16495">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">More information about the Mageia-dev +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
