I don't see the need for taking the risk of FHS non-compliance. Why not use a new package for such policies? e.g. a new "services" or "debian-services" package would allow storing services below "/var/lib/services/<service domain name>" or "/var/lib/services/<service type>/<name>". We could make this location configurable in the "services" package and allow admins to host new services below /srv if they like. The "services" package would provide hook to install / remove services which would abstract away the real location where the admin wants the files to appear and packages would symlink their packaged data into this location. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
