i like it. Closely followed by /var/lib/layman... |

wikipedia says in |

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard |
| 10 |
|

/var/lib/ |
| 12 |
State information. Persistent data modified by programs as they run, |
| 13 |
e.g., databases, packaging system metadata, etc. |
| 14 |

/var/layman i dislike due to this sentence in the FHS: |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
"Applications must generally not add directories to the top level of |
| 18 |
/var. Such directories should only be added if they have some system-wide |
| 19 |
implication[...]" |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
IMHO layman does not qualify. i am not religious on these things, however. |
| 22 |
kind regards |
