I'm quite frequently using: Files: debian/* License: Same as <program name> (in case it <program has a DFSG free license). Otherwise in most cases BSD license will fit. > The default location can be overridden by a command line option (-D) > or an environment variable (GMAPDB). > > How about /var/cache/gmap? > http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARCACHEAPPLICATIONCACHEDATA Sounds good. I'd recommend a wrapper around gmap which explicitely makes use of this option. > I edited and reformatted your description.

Please mind the spacing! I guess the lines with " * known" in the beginning need an additional blank in front to make sure it is a correct itemizing. Also last line needs a space in front.
