Package: deborphan
Version: 1.7.27
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

deborphan's keep file is located in /var/lib/deborphan. According to the 
Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, /var/lib/ is for persistent data modified by 
programs as they run, which isn't really the case for deborphan. /etc seems 
like a better location for it. 

Our reason for wanting this change is that we backup /etc to keep our server 
configuration but not /var/lib.

Regards,
Alex & Chris
