The policy states (9.1.1):

"The location of all installed files and directories must comply with the File
system Hierarchy Standard (FHS), version 2.1" ...

Are the files created by fai-setup/make-fai-nfsroot really to be considered
"installed files", or does the policy rather talk about files installed by dpkg?

Even though I'd also prefer to have them in /srv (and I do have them there on my
hosts), I don't think that the severity was justified; we will consider your
report for the next releases anyway, but keeping a release that does not yet fix
that bug from entering testing won't help anyone much...

Best regards,
Michael
