Patrice, I understand your concerns.  Let me try to explain our goal here.

A config file like this has been distributed for out-of-the-box usage for 6+
years in the K12LTSP distro.  Modern Edubuntu distributes exactly this way as
well.  Most users of K12LTSP today are using this configuration unmodified.

We are fully aware that this package is inflexible and possibly conflicting.

Despite these shortcomings, we cannot afford to make everything perfect before
inclusion in Fedora.  Our intent is to include basic functionality quickly, in
order to lower the barrier of entry of other people to contribute to its design
and improvement.

Despite not being perfect, it would be prudent to allow this in because:

- Prior to Fedora inclusion none of this is tracked in any source control,
making entry to development difficult and confusing.  With Ubuntu and every
several other distros already integrated with LTSP-5, this is a sorely needed
catalyst to keep Fedora relevant to LTSP users.
- This package does not cause problems for non-LTSP users, even if they
installed the package by accident because it is not enabled by default.


Please just let this go.  It doesn't harm anyone.
