If we go with the 'mark deprecated' approach everything can still keep behaving the way it was, and migrate over as they see fit. thanks, kk > And what do we want to happen with /var/games ? > > Also wrt /var/games, from my pov it is not worth the effort to > mv highscore files for existing games from there to > /var/lib/games (or the other way around).
