> I don't think /var/lib is a good place for murmur.sqlite, shouldn't be in /etc/ too?
As murmur.sqlite is often changed by the program itself and not by the user My first thought was that it belong to /var/lib and not to /etc. I get the following information from "Filesystem Hierarchy Standard" from http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html: /var/lib : Variable state information Purpose This hierarchy holds state information pertaining to an application or the system. State information is data that programs modify while they run, and that pertains to one specific host. Users must never need to modify files in /var/lib to configure a package's operation. /etc : Host-specific system configuration Purpose The /etc hierarchy contains configuration files. A "configuration file" is a local file used to control the operation of a program; it must be static and cannot be an executable binary.
