Yes, it's a good solution, but if you have another package, for example
groff, and you want to put thene executable files in the /usr/local/bin
too, I think you can't do again a mount -b //c/texmf/MiKTeX/bin
/usr/local/bin!

Note: With bash, where is the mount table?

I don't like this solution because with it I have to do a lot of move
when I get a new package or a new version of an existing package!
I prefer the first one.

Thanks,
