It's not the only way to configure the daemon.  It is a distro-specific legacy
method for configuring the daemon.  The modern cross-distro way to do this is
with systemd unit file overrides.

> It's probably fine to put PATENTS in licenses, but otherwise this is correct.

My thinking on this goes back to the reason we have a %license attribute
separate from %doc.  A system can be configured to skip installing
documentation files, but many licenses require the license text (or a subset of
it) always be distrusted with the software.  So a %license file is not
skippable, but a %doc file is.  I don't see any requirement in the upstream
PATENTS file to distribute that file with the software, so I think it makes
more sense as a %doc.  That said, the PATENTS file does say the literal word
"license", so perhaps it could go either way.  I've seen it done both ways in
other Fedora spec files.

> Please use "%{version}-%{release}" so that each build is easily identified.

I don't think that will work.  Upstream does special parsing of the version
strings for various properties of this output, so I believe including the
release field will cause similar errors to what are there now (or cause the
release field to be presented as something it isn't, like the commit hash).
