Bug#684691: pulseaudio creates /.pulse and /.pulse-cookie

[Christoph Anton Mitterer]

Package: pulseaudio
Version: 2.0-5
Severity: important


Hi.

Severity important as it IMHO contradicts the FHS and is thereby against the
Debian Policy.

pulseaudio seems to create /.pulse and /.pulse-cookie (again and again).

The root of the filesystem is surely not the place for any Tom, Dick and Harry
to create files there, neither pulseaudio.
I guess these files should likely go to some place below /var.


Cheers,
Chris.
