Hmmmmm. Squeezecenter on Hardy, trying to install Alienbbc. It is
unzipped in /var/lib/squeezecenter/Plugins (which is linked from
/usr/share/squeezecenter/Plugins). I get a complaint about not locating
Plugin.pm in @inc which doesn't list /var/lib/squeezecenter, but does
list /usr/share/squeezecenter. 

As far as I understand it, the @inc is a perl environment variable
pointing to "includes." Something hinky is happening with the soft link
from /usr/share/squeezecenter. Perl doesn't seem to treat the linked
directory as a place to search for includes.

Permissions are rwx for owner and rx for group and others. (both from
the /usr and /var side of things) (Owner is root:root).

I fixed it by deleting the link and placing a copy of the /var plugins
directory under /usr, but I'd appreciate any help setting up the way
the package prefers so I don't break everything next upgrade.

Any help much appreciated. 

What's the rationale for putting the Plugins over in var?
