Lintian tag: dir-in-usr-local
Type: error
Description (from lintian-explain-tags)
The package installs a directory in /usr/local/.... That is not allowed.
If you want to provide an empty directory in /usr/local for convenience of
the local system administrator, please follow the rules in the policy
manual (section 9.1.2), i.e. create the directories in the postinst
maintainer script but do not fail if the operation is unsuccessful (for
example, if /usr/local is mounted read-only).
Please refer to Site-specific programs (Section 9.1.2) in the Debian
Policy Manual for details.
