Or it is intended for Centos and not done how it needs to be because
Centos differs from the FHS ...

Hm, then how come it´s so troublesome?

I have /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/httpd.conf.  It seems to have remained
because I had httpd (which is apache) installed and then switched to
lighttpd and removed httpd.

httpd is no longer installed.  The only installed package referring to
it is apache-commons-logging, and I don´t know why it hasn´t been
removed.

The contents of /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/httpd.conf indicate that this file
is for apache.  Why hasn´t this file been removed when httpd was
removed?

There is no file lighttpd.conf in /usr/lib/tmpfiles.d.

Does this mean that both packages, httpd and lighttpd, have serious
problems because they do not remove and do not install files correctly?
