minus-squarejust_another_person@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down6·9 hours agoEver dealt with packaging files? You tell them where to go. It’s a simple manifest that says where files get unzipped and put on the filesystem. You have zero idea WTF you’re talking about.
minus-squaremacniel@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-220 minutes agoNo I haven’t dealt with packaging files. But packaging files implies that you know where your files are. But as I stated it’s not about your own files but files from someone else you rely on. Imagine what havok you would cause when someone things it would be a great idea to put ls or login no longer in /bin but /sbin instead?
