Erm, presumably you have something like zstyle ':completion:*' use-cache on zstyle ':completion:*' cache-path ~/var/cache/$HOST set, so there's little reason for it to appear in /var . You already have the ability to change cache-path for certain contexts, so you could have Debian packages cached into /var/cache/$HOST if you wanted, though if the purpose of that is to share the caches between users, I think this could subject you to problems concerning file ownership/permissions, locking, differing cache policies, and whatnot, or maybe these aren't actual problems in practice. Maybe someone else on the list is doing something similar or has additional thoughts. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
