right, it is something that should probably live in /var/cache. I'm

/etc.
Hi Rich,
I think a patch like this[1] should be enough. If it works, I could file
a ticket with upstream requesting them to use /var/cache instead
of /etc/ in accordance with the FHS. 'man hier' should be a reason
compelling enough :)
I'm not quite sure how the package update will be handled though. We'll
still have to carry /etc/ in the package list so it can be removed on
update?
