Adriaan, what's wrong when we will put files into /var, if they files have to go there ?
Some *magic* could be possible directly in 'spec files' like %post or %pre actions. But at this time we are creating spec from pspc and I have no clue how can we do it (same functionality). I don't know what's wrong with FOSSfontconfig, small difference to previous version is : install 'var' files into /var instead of /opt/foss/var. Where is the problem ?
