| Summary | 0002190: please consider storing vcmi static data in /usr/share/games/vcmi by default |
| Description | In bug 0002189 I suggested to add /usr/share/games/vcmi to the lookup paths for static game data. This report goes a step further and stores the game data in /usr/share/games/vcmi by default.
This location is suggested by the FHS and used by most other games:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#SPECIFICOPTIONS15 [^]
You probably use /usr/share/vcmi because /usr/share is the suggested default location if $$XDG_DATA_DIRS is not set. But the XDG Base Directory Specification is meant to extend the FHS and not to negate it or to overwrite it. |
