Now, it doesn't seem like the GNU coding recommendations say to put
stuff in our own directory for sysconfdir; that seems completely
wrong.
But a quick look at /etc/ shows that it's quite common. And a good
idea, I think.
Ah, but my question is: are those the individual PACKAGES that do that, or
is that the packaging system that is passing --sysconfdir=/etc/foo to
configure? If it's the latter, then that suggests to me that we should
simply put nmh config files in $(sysconfdir). If packages are installing
files in $(sysconfdir)/foo, then I'd like to see how they deal with
packaging systems to avoid $(sysconfdir)/foo/foo.
