FHS patch
This change would be welcome (I'm the VDR package maintainer of Mageia distribution), though it hasn't really been a big issue for me.
A couple of comments regarding the INSTALL part:
06.04.2012 16:01, Christopher Reimer kirjoitti:
+CACHEDIR = /var/cache/vdr
+CONFDIR = /var/lib/vdr
Just for the record, this is a bit against FHS rules ("Users must never need to modify files in /var/lib to configure a package's operation."), but there really is not better option either... (maybe fhs-discuss@ could be asked for a clarification).
+LOCDIR = $(PREFIX)/share/locale +PLUGINLIBDIR = $(PREFIX)/lib/vdr +RESDIR = $(PREFIX)/share/vdr
+VIDEODIR = /srv/vdr/video0
Ditto here, "/srv contains site-specific data which is served by this system.", which video data really isn't. (btw, why 'video0' and not 'video' like is VDR default?)
On Mandriva/Mageia packages I use '/var/lib/vdr/config' and '/var/lib/vdr/video', but as I said, they aren't really any better than your suggestions :)
Maybe just add a note that the INSTALL example doesn't really conform to current FHS?
