I see. Yes, that changes things. Then you do need to report in
Bugzilla. At this moment it doesn't occur to me a change that could be
generalized.


However, is the script really changed that often? Make diffs and find
out, perhaps it is not changed.

The alternative is accepting huge emails. You will have to report in
bugzilla, and wait. Meanwhile, you have to edit the file manually, or
write a sed script in cron or somewhere that changes back the line in
the weekly security script.

True. That's what I don't understand.

Ah, I understand now. It is mountpoints, not directories.
