how to divert /etc/profile?

07-04-2011, 09:50 AM

Hi folks,

I would like to install a private package diverting
/etc/profile (to support /etc/profile.d). Problem:
There is no owner for this file.

What would you suggest?

Any helpful comment would be highly appreciated.

Harri

See /usr/share/doc/base-files/README.

The version in squeeze already includes support for profile.d.
