Here is a list of the major specification changes from FSSTND 1.1 to
FSSTND 1.2. Since this is a simplification, it's a good idea to check
out the standard document itself if one of these changes concerns you or
your software.
* /bin: tcsh may be in /bin/tcsh or /usr/bin/tcsh. (It was
previously implied that /bin/tcsh was not compliant.)
* /dev: the Linux device registrar is now H. Peter Anvin
<Peter.Anvin@linux.org>, see the up-to-date device list at
ftp.yggdrasil.com in /pub/device-list.
* /etc: subdirectories of /etc/X11 for each window manager are no
longer required.
* /lib: /lib may contain miscellaneous shared libraries for binaries
required in /bin or /sbin. (As was the case before, but it's
spelled-out now.)
* /lib: /lib/modules is included, but not fully specified.
* /sbin: `ctrlaltdel' is optional.
* /usr: clarify that /usr/X386 is X11R5 on i386, /usr/X11R6 is X11R6
on any Linux system.
* /usr/include: /usr/include/g++ is now required.
* /var/adm is obsolete. lastlog is now in /var/log/lastlog. wtmp
is now in /var/log/utmp. utmp is now in /var/run/utmp.
Transitional symbolic links: /var/adm to /var/log, /var/log/utmp to
/var/run/utmp.
* /var/catman: /usr/man/cat[1-9] is for preformatted (i.e., on a
CD-ROM) manual pages. /var/catman remains a writable cache of
formatted manual pages.
* /var/named has been clarified, especially in relationship to
/etc/named.boot.
