This is very helpful to make a decision. I like such interesting collaboration. The balance is currently more and more in favor of /usr/sbin for Debian...which is nice because this is what we use right now..:-) Reformulation: Jari, you need to bring strong arguments if you want us to change this, now..:-). This is not a "go away" answer but I think that maintaining your request for moving nologin to /bin will need you to give work to our Technical Committee..:-) --nO3oAMapP4dBpMZi Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFErKD51OXtrMAUPS0RAsaEAJ4vffS1+rWEAYHWS+mo8smLY0j7vACePHtC uDtmApbhyQDCrE2/4OUpXlw= =/tE2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nO3oAMapP4dBpMZi--
