Thanks for your quick response. Here's how we see it, although of course this could be a misunderstanding on our part.

We're going by the version of the FHS document at

http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/fhs/fhs-2.3.html

According to this:

/etc is used for a "local file used to control the operation of a program"

and

/var/lib is "used to preserve the condition of an application"

The first definition seems to fit the keep file better, since it tells deborphan what to do, not what it already did.

Regards,
Alex & Chris
