Package: powersaved
Version: 0.15.20-3
Severity: serious

Any non-trivial configuration of powersaved requires writing event scripts.
At the moment these scripts must be placed under /usr/lib/powersave/scripts
which violates Debian Policy (see below). Please respect the policy.

Some excerpts from Debian Policy:

10.7.1 Definitions

configuration file

    A file that affects the operation of a program, or provides site-
or host-specific information, or otherwise customizes the behavior of
a program.

... In general, any script that embeds configuration information is
de-facto a configuration file and should be treated as such. 

10.7.2 Location

Any configuration files created or used by your package must reside in
/etc. If there are several, consider creating a subdirectory of /etc
named after your package.

If your package creates or uses configuration files outside of /etc,
and it is not feasible to modify the package to use /etc directly, put
the files in /etc and create symbolic links to those files from the
location that the package requires.
