08/09/2019: The cache directory has been moved

NOTE: This only affects existing installations.

Starting from version 0.12.0 of the package manager, the cache directory is now located at $XDG_CACHE_HOME/kiss (~/.cache/kiss if the $XDG_CACHE_HOME variable is unset).

This change was made to prevent a potential security issue when KISS is used on a multi-user system. The cache is now effectively local to each user.

The system-wide /var/cache/kiss directory is no longer used by the package manager. If you would like to keep your current cache, you will need to relocate it to the new location mentioned above.
