Bug #523920 is not an FHS violation. The FHS requires that applications must be able to recover from manual deletion of *files* located under /var/cache; it says nothing about directories. (And deletion of contents under /var/lib -- game over, man.) > /var/www is a quite cosmetic issue No, it's not. It interferes with admins' ability to use /var/www as their own webroot unmolested by packages. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
