It does seem that all paths used by tor are relative to DataDirectory, which has usually been /var/lib/tor. Perhaps a new configuration option for CacheDirectory, and moving caches to that directory, would be useful. It would be up to packagers to actually use that option though, a default of using DataDirectory as CacheDirectory would not be entirely unreasonable for cases where tor is embedded in other software. This would seem worthy of a trac ticket if someone could write one up. Thanks, Iain.
