The pyscrabble-server package installs the PyScrabble server as a

daemon along with a System V init script that runs the server under a
-

dedicated user account, created on installation. The original code is
-

modified so that instead of ~/.config/pyscrabble/, it reads the
-

configuration from files in /etc/pyscrabble/, stores the server
-

database in /var/lib/pyscrabble, and writes the log to

/var/log/pyscrabble/pyscrabble.log.

For the same reason, the server is not restarted when upgraded. The

earliest opportunity.
