The munin package already ships files in /etc/opt/csw/munin though, which are machine local configuration. Why not keep things together? If munin shipped a manifest that didn't touch /etc/ or /var on the machine, your point would be better received on my end. [It's still well recieved, I just don't think it applies well to this particular situation.] > there is no reason to keep the read-only config as machine-local But it's not 100% read only. As Trygve mentioned, it may need to be tuned to put security restrictions into it, etc. > > Personally though, I like the way debian does this. > > Hnmmm. not sure i like that way we can come up with something better > perhaps :) It would be nice to have this extended into something like their a2enmod/a2ensite setup (for modules and vhosts). Placing the files in $apacheconf/addons-available and then symlinking into $apacheconf/addons-enabled would be nicer, I think. If it were decided that all shipped apache config snippets should live with the rest of the apache config, this would get my vote. Maybe one the following ground rules could be used? 1. Install all apache config files in the directory apache puts its own configuration in (most likely a sub-directory, for clarity). 2. If the package ships other machine local config, put the file with those, otherwise, somewhere in /opt/csw/etc?
