generation folder is not in $MAGENTO_ROOT/var/ but $MAGENTO_ROOT/

In the installer we have find $MAGENTO_ROOT/var/generation -type d -exec chmod g+s {} \;

But the generation folder is in find $MAGENTO_ROOT/generation -type d -exec chmod g+s {} \;

[michsk]

actually its not even called generation but generated, or am i missing something?

This changed between Magento versions a while back. The installer is probably just written for the older version.
