[ef13657] | 69 | <para>It is good policy and common practice to place important
|
---|
| 70 | libraries into the <filename class="directory">/lib</filename>
|
---|
| 71 | directory. This is most important in scenarios where <filename
|
---|
| 72 | class="directory">/usr</filename> is on a separate partition.
|
---|
| 73 | Essentially, the run-time components of any libraries that are used by
|
---|
| 74 | programs in <filename class="directory">/bin</filename> or <filename
|
---|
| 75 | class="directory">/sbin</filename> should reside in <filename
|
---|
| 76 | class="directory">/lib</filename> so that they are on the root
|
---|
| 77 | partition and available in the event of <filename

| 78 | class="directory">/usr</filename> being inaccessible.</para>
