Well... the usual way in which people implemented sharing between
architectures was that the /usr/share hierarchy duplicated the other
hierarchies (i.e. with bin, lib, etc), and it was simply mounted cross-
platform from an nfs server. That's the architecture the Python install
was created for. I have no idea why FHS modified this test-and-tried
layout that's been in use for at least 15 years.
But: if you really want the other layout, why not submit a fix to
configure.in and Makefile.pre.in? Simply add, say, --fhs-prefix=/usr/
share and if that option is present override the Makefile.pre.in
declarations for SCRIPTDIR, LIBDEST and INCLUDEDIR?
(Hmm, coming to think of it: it seems rather silly that the FHS puts
include files into /usr/include, where they aren't shared... If there's one
thing that can be crossplatform it's source code....) |
