Indeed ... I always hated the duplication of each and everything in

Hmm, ~/.texmf-{var,config} was the Debian setting in former versions,
~/.texliveNNNN/... is the preferred by upstream, but it would mix the files
generated by Debian TeX Live and the one of a standalone TeX Live.

So I tend to go to
	~/.texmf-{var,config}
as it also was this way in former times ...
