--- Comment #2 from Kay Sievers <kay at vrfy.org> ---
It needs to be available during early-boot, just like /etc/ld.so.cache,

It cannot be in /var, because /var might be mounted only later.

The database consists of data from /etc and /usr/lib, so it cannot be stored
in /usr, because we need to be able to share /usr independent of /etc.

We have no better place to store it.
