(I assume you mean "should not know about it").
report-cli currently uses /var/spool/abrt as a default for -D DIR.
If you feel that having it is "incorrect", then I have a few ideas
how to make it "more correct":
This default can be (1) removed, or better, (2) made configurable at
build time, say, configure --with-default-dump-dir=DIR.
For Fedora, we'll build it with --with-default-dump-dir=/var/spool/abrt.
Whoever else wants to build it, they can use anything they want,
or omit it and have no default.
How does this look to you?
Why don't make it configurable from abrt.conf?
I think a lot of people don't want to bother with changing spec file (if
you want to have exact version of abrt/libreport as is in rhel or fedora)
