Description:
gtkballs-3.1.5-1 install a file under /usr/var/ ( /var )
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 0 2007-03-09 09:49 gtkballs-scores

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

Also fix the mandir /usr/man -> /usr/share/man

This trivial patch set correct dir, to be more FHS compliant ;)

PS: Using "DESTDIR" instead of "prefix" works OK (all files are installed)

This task depends upon

Oops, also needs fix the perms of the file and add a backup directive like lbreakout2 ( see my comment at  FS#13489  )
