My first guess was /var, but since it is some sort of configuration setting, I
think it belongs in /etc. The idea is that you can backup your configuration by
backing up /etc. Hmmm... this stil doesn't backup yout list of installed
packages.
I guess /var is OK as well. Apache looks (or at least used to look for) the
webpages in /var/www.
