+Info: Debian packages should not install into <tt>/srv</tt>. The
+ specification of <tt>/srv</tt> states that its structure is at the
+ discretion of the local administrator and no package should rely on any
+ particular structure. Debian packages that install files directly into
+ <tt>/srv</tt> can't adjust for local policy about its structure and in
+ essence force a particular structure.
+ .
+ If a package wishes to put its data in <tt>/srv</tt>, it must do this in
+ a way that allows the local administrator to specify and preserve their
+ chosen directory structure (such as through post-install configuration,
+ setup scripts, debconf prompting, etc.).
