I seem to remember that the point of rc.conf was to configure system in one place. Looks like the politics are changing.
rc.conf is the one place for all Arch-specific settings. As you know /etc is full of config files owned by different packages, rc.conf is for the stuff that does not belong anywhere else.
Thank you, this is a very clear statement, and applies further than just to this topic (I'm thinking systemd and the possible resulting deprecation of our DAEMONS array in rc.conf). Wasn't aware of 'Arch-specific settings' in this context, even though it makes perfect sense once mentioned.
