Probably a cut & paste error: User uploaded content in /usr/lib?

[Axel Beckert]

Hi,

via http://bugs.debian.org/557972 I discovered a part of the Debian
Webapps Policy Manual (DRAFT-1.10, as published on
http://webapps-common.alioth.debian.org/draft/html/) which doesn't
comply with FHS and is probably
just an unlucky cut & paste error:

On http://webapps-common.alioth.debian.org/draft/html/ch-issues.html
there is written:

---snip---
Specifically, the following table should serve as a guideline for the
placement of files:

[...]

User uploaded content

A unique subdirectory of /usr/lib/PACKAGE
---snap---

Acoording to the FHS and common sense, this should be
/var/lib/PACKAGE, not /usr/lib/PACKAGE.

HTH.

Regards, Axel
