Hi
I've been wanting to add another program to zaptel that really belongs
in /usr/sbin . Burrently it installs "everything" into /sbin.
Let's look at what zaptel currently puts at /sbin:
ztcfg
Needed to configure the kernel modules via ioctls. Required for
the drivers to function. Path is hardwired in quite a few places.
ztpty
Added in recent bristuff. I'm not really familiar with it.
ztmonitor
ztspeed
zttest
zttool
Testing and setup utilities. Run by the user.
fxotune
Has two modes of operation: setup mode, to write /etc/fxotune.conf
and load mode, to load setup from /etc/fxotune.conf to the driver.
Thus ztcfg, fxotune and maybe ztpty belong in /sbin . Others don't.
Any idea regarding ztpty?
Would you like a patch to change their location? I'd rather push that
change through Debian than through upstream as upstream is now in
"freeze mode". Debian will be in "freeze mode" later on.
