Only when there's any real chance of them not existing otherwise. I'd
say packaging any directory which is part of FHS is a clear error.
Packaging a directory is essentially to assert ownership of it. You can
read it as meaning 'if this package is not installed, this directory
should not exist'. That's a good test of whether you should be packaging
any given directory: does that statement make sense?
