I can't comment on the correctness or otherwise of the first statement above,
but on the later statements regarding the packaging; I like the current
directory layout, I administer more than just some DNS tools and I want to be
able to fit applications *into* my OS, not visa versa.

I still hate the way Oracle (for one example) takes over a whole machine, when
for many applications it will only be one of many running on a system.

If you expect your tools to help 'take over' systems by imposing external
'standards' on them, then you will lose. At least in my shop.
