The problem is: traditionally, /var/satellite as the default values of

use cases where people mount the /var/satellite over NFS or share
among Satellites, etc.

By now putting the rpm-managed /var/satellite/systemlogs directory
there, I fear we might experience bad side-effects.

I'm not opposed to having the directory for systemlogs rpm-managed,
I'd just like it to be different directory than something withing the
default mount point path. Maybe /var/spacewalk or /var/rhn or
something similar?


OK- that sounds good. I'll write up a patch tomorrow or Friday to move it over. It will probably be something like /var/spacewalk/systemlogs. Do you have any recommendations on how to handle upgrades? Some options:
- just make a release note about it, nothing else
- have a %post script move the directory (gross!)
- drop a line in rhn.conf pointing the audit code to /var/satellite/systemlogs from a %post
- have the code look in both (also gross)

Thanks,

Josh
