hi!
I noticed that after having installed some software, there are some strange files located in my root directory.
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4.0K 2004-09-08 01:01 ./
drwxr-xr-x 17 root root 4.0K 2004-09-08 01:01 ../

drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 4.0K 1999-07-31 06:25 var/
this is after I installed gettext.
I have no idea where they come from :/
at least they aren't listed as being installed by the install routine.
but it seems like it's always files called lib* (if that's of any importance)
does anybody know what's going on here?
