[Pkg-rrfw-general] Re: [rrfw-devel] Manpage section choice

[Stanislav Sinyagin]

Hi Jurij,

Please have a look at the Torrus migration roadmap. 
The idea is that executables will reside in a private Torrus' directory, 
by default /usr/local/torrus/bin, and there will be a wrapper script
that launches all them, and it will install in a user-executable 
area, by default in /usr/local/bin.

Regarding the manpage sections, I remember I wanted the section number 
to be configurable, but there was some serious obstacle, I don't quite 
remember what exactly. I'll have a look later.

Thanks
