if it can be regenerated, then /var/cache/munin/html is exactly where it
should be. only if there are actual things that can't be regenerated (i.e.
rrd files with historical data not put elsewhere) should it go under /var/lib.
with regards to the use of the top-level munin directory in /var/lib/munin,
you could fix that with some migration support in maintainer scripts (or just
chose another similarly named subdirectory under /var/lib), but it seems
like it's a non issue if /var/cache is the right place anyway.
