I don't know what you're replying to, but your "simpler" version starts with what ron suggested and for multi-user setups recreates the /usr/local model. Or was this to the earlier man subdir question? No recursive binds are needed in either case. The list of binds would be shorter with /usr/local than /opt, but that doesn't seem like much of a win to me. Includes in /lib/namespace for each package should make it even less of an issue. Our file server at the labs had >350 lines in /lib/namespace and the overlay worked very well. --Apple-Mail-2--741818161 content-type: application/pgp-signature; x-mac-type=70674453; name=PGP.sig content-description: This is a digitally signed message part content-disposition: inline; filename=PGP.sig content-transfer-encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.8 (Darwin) iEYEARECAAYFAkus6XUACgkQyrb52b5lrs4kTwCfad7z9rUg5Ws7PvI5VcyNGy99 PyMAn30Lj0mOZFJ716a8Utmjv/1HHVCJ =FiZ/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Apple-Mail-2--741818161--
