I don't think you are correct: In http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/fhs/fhs-2.3.html#SRVDATAFORSERVICESPROVIDEDBYSYSTEM the last sentence about /srv says: --begin quote ----------------- Distributions must take care not to remove locally placed files in these directories without administrator permission. [20] [20] This is particularly important as these areas will often contain both files initially installed by the distributor, and those added by the administrator. --end quote ----------------- So, as I read it, /srv is clearly designed for files from the distribution and locally added ones. regards, Holger
