Apo to FHS 2.2 (23 Mai 2001)

5.  The /var Hierarchy

       5.1  Purpose

       /var contains variable data files.  This includes spool directories and
       files, administrative and logging data, and transient and temporary
       files.

       Some portions of /var are not shareable between different systems.  For
       instance, /var/log, /var/lock, and /var/run.  Other portions may be
       shared, notably /var/mail, /var/cache/man, /var/cache/fonts, and
       /var/spool/news.

       /var is specified here in order to make it possible to mount /usr read-
       only.  Everything that once went into /usr that is written to during
       system operation (as opposed to installation and software maintenance)
       must be in /var.
