[csw-maintainers] Pathes in CSWcommon

Hi,

in the past certain pathes were excluded from the prototype
during bin/cswproto when gerating packages in GAR. These pathes
were similar to the ones defined in CSWcommon, but not exactly
the same. This lead to situations where pathes were skipped in
a package which were nowhere defined - not in CSWcommon and
not the package and got defaults for user/group/perms leading
to bug reports like
   <http://www.opencsw.org/mantis/view.php?id=3444>

I changed the mechanism to grab the CSWcommon package, extract
the pathes and build two files for sparc/i386 at etc/commondirs-*
which are excluded during prototype generation.

There may be some pathes which should go into CSWcommon now as I
look at it like all directories for ISAs, not just the most basic
ones as it is now.

The change is in effect since r3993. Please keep an eye on your
prototypes and let me know if you encounter anything strange.


Best regards
