+# 'cache_for_lmi' is a subdirectory of the root, in a guest used for
+# building lmi; but it is a subdirectory of /srv in a host used for
+# creating a guest for building lmi, because a corporation that owns
+# a host server might not allow a subdirectory of the system root to
+# be created.
+#
+# This centos chroot is a guest of an underlying host, but its purpose
+# is to emulate such a host. Therefore, its 'cache_for_lmi' directory
+# is a subdirectory of its /srv.
+#
+# The same host directory is mounted in the ultimate debian guest here
+# and now, only because that's so readily done.
