What happened to $VARBASE/cache ?

[Ottavio Caruso <ottavio2006-usenet2012%yahoo.com@localhost>]

Hi,

I have recently bootstrapped on a fresh installation of Debian Buster
with "--varbase /usr/pkg/var".

I expected to find a "/usr/pkg/var/cache" but it's not there. Has
anything changed recently? I know there have been changes to
${PREFIX}/pkgdb, but this shouldn't have interfered with
$VARBASE/cache.

The reason I ask is because I need to find a place where to store the
index for man pages and it used to reside in /usr/pkg/var/cache/man in
my previous bootstrap.
