Comment 1 for bug 523076

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to look at all reported bugs in a timely manner.

I've just checked with fortunes-ubuntu-server version 0.3 [1] on Ubuntu 12.04 and version 0.4 [2] on Ubuntu 14.04. I wonder whether this may have been resolved when the debian/dirs file was removed as part of the 0.3 release, see [3] for details.

Since the empty directory no longer appears, I'm marking this as fixed.
