Hi there!

Debian packages (and probably RH ones) won't install files under /opt.
That tree is left for 3rd party apps (as in not supplied by the
distribution).

The Debian package uses /usr/share/modsecurity-crs/, as per FHS [1], and
suggests how to include the rules from your ModSecurity configuration
file [2].

Any improvement/suggestion is always welcome!

Regards,

Alberto
