I am the fledgling upstream maintainer of Bill Kendrick's game "Tux, Of Math Command" aka Tuxmath. I have been working on making the program more configurable, and it now reads and writes config files. The generic (non-Debianized) "make install" target puts the program under /usr/local. From my reading of the FHS, /usr/local should have its own etc for configuration of locally-installed software. My /usr/local (Sid) has all of the other subdirectories listed in the FHS, but no /usr/local/etc.
1. Would it be impolite for the makefile for my program to simply go ahead and create /usr/local/etc? 2. Shouldn't Debian systems already have this directory to be FHS-compliant? -- David Bruce
