| Subject: | example code snippets don't belong in /usr/bin |
Hi,
recent versions of Net::GPSD3 added an EXE_FILES paragraph to
Makefile.PL, installing the example snippets in scripts/* into /usr/bin
(or /usr/local/bin, or whatever prefix is used). I think this is wrong,
as these are clearly examples of how Net::GPSD3 could be used in one's
own scripts (i.e., a form of documentation), but not "programs" in their
own right that end-users would actually want to run.
Thus I'd suggest to remove this paragraph, but I'm not sure why you put
it there in the first place?
