Source: debian-policy Version: 4.3.0.2 Severity: normal The policy says in section § 9.1.2. "Site-specific programs": > Packages must not create sub-directories in the directory /usr/local > itself, except those listed in FHS, section 4.5. However, you may > create directories below them as you wish. You must not remove any of > the directories listed in 4.5, even if you created them. FHS 3.0's section 4.5 is about a completely irrelevant /usr/include directory, not about /usr/local. I think this should point to section 4.9 in the FHS? In FHS 2.3, this "section 4.5" might have been right. But as said in policy 9.1.1: > The location of all files and directories must comply with the Filesystem > Hierarchy Standard (FHS), version 3.0, [...]. No other exception is noted below that.

Version: 4.4.0.0 This was closed in 4.4.0.0 but the bug closer was missing from debian/changelog. I've added it now for the historical record. -- Russ Allbery (rra@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
