Bug#42358: policy says /var/lib/games, FHS says /var/games
Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.0.1.0
In section 5.10, the first paragraph mentions /var/lib/games. The FHS
has moved this directory to /var/games.
I suggest a) correcting this, and b) mentioning that programs which
use /var/lib/games should switch.
Old:
"The permissions on /var/lib/games are 755 `root.root'."
New:
"The permissions on /var/games are 755 `root.root'. Games which
use the FSSTND /var/lib/games should be modified to use the FHS
/var/games instead."
I'm not sure if this needs seconds, since it's more of a correction
than a new proposal.
