We pass the FHS compliance tests, for newly installed systems, which is
where the tests should be performed, base-files *provides* those
directories, but if you remove them (either directly or indirectly),
then it is your duty to restore them, not mine.

Please reassign. This is not a bug in base-files.

Thanks.
