Description:
lbreakout2-2.6beta_7-3 install a file under /usr/var/
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 229 2009-02-23 02:23 /usr/var/lbreakout2.hscr #(ok really is in /var/lbreakout2.hscr) but...

This is bad location for a file, a better location in this case (persistent dynamic data for games is /var/games/{pkgname}

This trivial patch set correct dir, to be more FHS compliant ;)
   lbreakout2.var.dir.fix.patch (0.4 KiB)
This task depends upon

Remember that hiscore files need special handling. See some other games like gnome-games for examples. It's not nice when your highscore is removed after a package upgrade.

True JGC :). Then also add a backup=(var/games/lbreakout2/lbreakout2.hscr)
