+-  ``<packagename> installs files in <path>, but it is expected to be empty [empty-dirs]``
+
+   The specified package is installing files into a directory that is
+   normally expected to be empty (such as ``/tmp``). These files may
+   be more appropriately installed to a different location, or
+   perhaps alternatively not installed at all, usually by updating the
+   ``do_install`` task/function.
