Re: Q: Location of copyrighted ROM images for emulator packages?
Hi,
If the ROMs are adta, and not conf files, then how do we solve
the issue of never overwriting a user provided rom? If you create a
zero length file in /var/lib/Blah, and I overwrite it, and then I
upgrade or re-install, are my chages gone? If so, it is a bug in the
package.

This is wrong, since config files have to be in /etc.
Arto> Configuration files need not be in /etc, all that the quote said
Arto> was that files in /etc are config files.
This is wrong. Please read the policy manual.

3.3.7. Configuration files
--------------------------
Any configuration files created or used by your package should reside
in `/etc'. If there are several you should consider creating a
subdirectory named after your package.
