On Mon, Nov 30, 2015 at 11:39:49AM +0200 I heard the voice of Konstantin Belousov, and lo! it spake thus: > > I do not know what is the best way to handle it. Most simple is to > move libelf to /lib. How feasible is to move libkvm to /usr/lib (and > all stuff in / which needs libkvm) is the open question. To gild the moderately obvious, I question if we should just mask all related problems forever, by just giving up tracking and moving _everything_ into /lib. According to du -A, /usr/lib/lib*.so* on my system is 11 meg. /lib is currently 9.4, so it's only about doubling the size. /boot/kernel/kernel is 25, so the whole combined set is still smaller than the kernel itself, never mind + the modules. For that matter, everything under /usr/lib minus the .a files and the debug/ tree is still only about 33 meg, so even if the net really needs to be cast wider than lib*.so* (and it's not like we'd need to move the symlinks themselves anyway), it can't spread very far. Certainly we shouldn't be cavalier about blowing up the size of / for no reason, but we're talking a pretty small increment. Compared to the kernel debug symbols before they got moved, it's miniscule. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | fullermd@over-yonder.net Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ On the Internet, nobody can hear you scream.
