Hello, if I remember correctly, it was me who recommended /var/ax25. In this directory, we have data like mheard/mheard.dat, ax25rtd's data, node/ or pms/ -- but also axcall stores downloads in this directory. => It's a mix of data you may search in /var/lib, /var/cache or /var/spool ; /var/ax25 is more intuitive.
Unfortunately, there's (afaik) no standard definition for looking in /usr/include for the path in the system at compile time. And I think our project is too small (and our needs are too insignificant) for getting that variable to /usr/include/paths.h Any ideas? vy 73, - Thomas dl9sau On Tue, 27 Jun 2017 11:24:57 +0100 Dave Hibberd <d...@vehibberd.com> wrote: > Morning all! > > Brian, thanks for raising this to our attention - that's helpful. > > The reason that URONode doesn't line up with ax25-tools in this case is > that I was clearing the Lintian error "non-standard-dir-in-var", which > as you can see here [1] ax25-tools still carries.
