Bug#372207: lvm2: lvm may put archive and backup under /var

[Daniel 'NebuchadnezzaR' Dehennin]

Package: lvm2
Version: 2.02.05-3
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

I use a readonly / and I notice that backups and archives are under
/etc.

The backups may go under /var/backup/, archives under /var/cache ?

Regards.
