Package: adb
Version: 1:8.1.0+r23-5
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

By default adb creates ~/.android to store a key pair. This should go to 
$XDG_DATA_DIR/android instead, by default ~/.local/share/android

See the XDG Base Directory Specification for details.

https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

Kind regards,
Andrei
