I am not sure what you mean or why you closed this bug - asking me to delete any "unusual" directories does not fix the bug in rinse. It's completely legal in debian to have this directorxy, and some software requires it - I cannot delete it without breaking other software. The bug here is clearly in rinse - /usr/etc is not a debian-mandated directory, so rinse must not rely on it being preesent or absent (see the debian filesysytem heirarchy standard for example). Asking users to delete random directories to work around a bug in your package without fixing it is not acceptable.
