--- Begin Message ---Package: durep Version: 0.9-1 Severity: serious User: lintian-ma...@debian.org Usertags: dir-or-file-in-var-www Debian packages should not install files under /var/www. This is not one of the /var directories in the File Hierarchy Standard and is under the control of the local administrator. Packages should not assume that it is the document root for a web server; it is very common for users to change the default document root and packages should not assume that users will keep any particular setting. Packages that want to make files available via an installed web server should instead put instructions for the local administrator in a README.Debian file and ideally include configuration fragments for common web servers such as Apache. As an exception, packages are permitted to create the /var/www directory due to its past history as the default document root, but should at most copy over a default file in postinst for a new install. Refer to Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (The /var Hierarchy) for details. One solution that works is to put configuration files into /etc/<package_name>, put static content, if any, into /usr/{share,lib}/<package_name>, then create /var/lib/<package name> as home for the package, and symlink the files from /etc and /usr/ into the /var/lib/<package_name>. Then create a simple set of configuration snippets for popular web servers (for example, files one may link into /etc/apache2/conf.d) and put them into /etc/<package_name>. This way user modifiable files stil live in /etc, and a simple operation can make the package go live. Filed as serious, since this is a violation of the FHS (which is part of policy), and also since a package with these files will currently get this package rejected. See http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2009/10/msg00004.html for details. This means the package has been deemed too buggy to be in Debian. manoj -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31.4-anzu-2 (SMP w/2 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) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages durep depends on: ii cdebconf [debconf-2.0] 0.145 Debian Configuration Management Sy ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii perl 5.10.1-6 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages durep recommends: ii libmldbm-perl 2.01-3 Store multidimensional hash struct durep suggests no packages.
