[fprint] Future?

[Mehmet Özgür Bayhan]

Hi.

I am working on  a project by using libfprint and pamfprint.The project is
PARDUS's fingerprint manager.On our system we want to use this library by
default.But we have a problem.Because of our system's structure we must keep
the user's print data in /var/lib/finger-manager directory.(or somewhere
else in the system where is only have root access, not in user's home
directory.).We have to do that because we work  on "one finger scan and
choose the user" at our system's kdm login and it seems like it is not
secure to keep the data on user's space.

The difficulties are:

1) your default directory is on user's home our's is somewhere else in the
system where has only root access.

2)So we have to change the codes in your libraries(especially pamfprint)
whenever you change the release.In every our package we have to re-arrange
your code.

3)Probability of the problems with other programs which uses your library
after the change.

So we have to learn about the future of the project.Is it possible to keep
the data on anywhere in system which only have root access?

Anyway.We and our project is waiting for your answer... (:

Best wishes.
