No, it isn't at all. Any configuration files MUST reside in /etc.
These are not configuration files (the sorts of things used to
configure a package), but score/state files, if I recall correctly.
So how about this scheme:
In the .deb, supply:
/usr/lib/crafty/scores.default
/usr/lib/crafty/saves.default
etc., all 644 root.root, and also the dir:
/var/lib/crafty
which is 2755 root.games.
Then in the postinst, when called with the argument "configure":
for i in scores saves ...
do
if [ ! -f /var/lib/crafty/$i ]
then
cp /usr/lib/crafty/$i.default /var/lib/crafty/$i
chgrp games /var/lib/crafty/$i
chmod 664 /var/lib/crafty/$i
fi
done
And in the postrm, when called with the argument "purge":
for i in scores saves ...
do
rm -f /var/lib/crafty/$i
done
