Bug#739193: Should use $(XDG_CONFIG_HOME)/.cache (or similar) for it's cache

[Christoph Egger]

Package: spring
Version: 96.0+dfsg-1
Severity: minor

Hi!

Spring uses ~/.config/spring/cache for it's cache instead of the
"natural" place ~/.cache/spring which is a bit of an annoyance here: I
have a rather size constrained $HOME (due to regular backups) but lots
of free space outside the backup. Now ~/.cache is "naturally" excluded
from backup and everything placing it's cache there isn't a
problem. However spring seems to keep it's cache in ~/.config.

It might be a good idea to also keep ~/.config/spring/pool in ~/.cache
as well (I would personally prefer it that way) but I guess you can
argue there either way.

Regards

  Christoph
