by Hi,
there was a discussion about the different file systems going on
in this newsgroup. Has anybody collected the postings and can
send me a summary about this.
- The generated fonts for "xdvi"
are written in my installation to the /var file system. I'm just
afraid that this will grow too much. In the worst case, can I
delete the files stored in /var unconditionally ? Are there
any system files which are really needed ?
- Xman asks me always if I want to store some formatted man-pages.
Are these also stored in /var ?
The information about /var in the Linux book of InfoMagic is a bit
short on this issue.
