I don't see that it leads to storing the compiled programs to live
under /var/, rather than /usr/ which to my mind is more appropriate
for compiled versions of programs installed by the package manager,
which don't change except through explicit sysadmin action to change
them.
At least python-support is not the only package to do that. On my
system, the following directories are generated upon package
installation and will not change in other situations:
/var/lib/aspell
/var/lib/defoma
/var/lib/dictionaries-common
/var/lib/doc-base
/var/lib/gconf
/var/lib/iceweasel
/var/lib/initramfs-tools
/var/lib/libxml-sax-perl
/var/lib/menu-xdg
/var/lib/python-support
/var/lib/scrollkeeper
/var/lib/tex-common
/var/lib/texmf
/var/lib/usbutils
/var/lib/vim
/var/lib/xml-core
/var/cache/app-install
/var/cache/dictionaries-common
/var/cache/fontconfig
You can see that python-support does nothing more than following current
practice. Therefore the decision of moving these files to some place
in /usr should probably be made as a whole, not for a single package.
