Here's my small proposal about this issue... There's a variable, MM_PRE_COMPARE_SCRIPT which mergemaster(8) understands. For those who want to update /etc/rc.d automatically, write a small script which copies your favorite files to /etc, then set "MM_PRE_COMPARE_SCRIPT=/your/script.sh" to /etc/mergemaster.rc. Since mergemaster(8) is considered as a mandatory tool for admin (I hope nobody objects), the problem we have discussed here can be resolved with such a script and use it with mergemaster(8). We can also supply a sample shell script which copies etc/rc.d/* (for example), to /usr/share/examples/mergemaster. How do you like this? Anybody have a sample script for that? -- - Makoto `MAR' Matsushita
