Somehow that sounds like a really bad idea to me. Admittedly manually
placing some file in /usr/include/libfm is pretty ugly, but I would
still certainly not expect that upgrading the libfm package would remove
it.

Is that really good practice? Can packages "own" a directory, so that
anything that the local admin puts there may be removed automatically?

Best,
