Comment (by bonefish):
I don't really see a reason for removing sample settings files from the
source tree. The UserlandFS settings for NetFS are needed. Otherwise the
configuration (add/removing servers) won't work correctly. For support of
proper packaging, UserlandFS needs to be adjusted to load settings
differently.
* It should first look in respective data subdirectories and load the
settings from all files found there. Cf. how [http://cgit.haiku-
os.org/haiku/tree/src/apps/expander/ExpanderRules.cpp?id=f8d240938572bca4733bcf53ccf1b0170a674e2c#n112
Expander loads its rules].
* Then it should load the user settings (if any) just like before.
This way a package for a FS based on UserlandFS can simply include a
settings file ("settings" is really not the correct word -- it's really
more of an interface description) in the respective data subdirectory.
Another thing that should be changed in UserlandFS is where it looks for
FS add-ons. IIRC it only looks in ~/config ATM. It should look in all four
installation locations (system and home, packaged and non-packaged).
