Package: installation-guide-amd64 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
While reading the installation manual trying to understand if I should use /run or /var/run for temporary file creation, I run into the following page: https://www.debian.org/releases/stretch/amd64/apcs02.html There it says: "Debian GNU/Linux adheres to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard for directory and file naming" and links to http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ as the reference for such standard. This confused me because the previous debian page used /run, but there was no reference to it on the external link. It turns out that that is an old reference, and that the newer version of the standard, 3.0, is now hosted at: http://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/fhs.shtml which correctly contains and documents /run. Please update the above page and all references where a link to the old spec is and change it to the new page of the Linux Foundation, or to the home page: https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/en/FHS Thank you, -- Jaime Crespo -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
