Move a configuration file

Hello,

I have a small question regarding a "configuration file" for BackupPC.

BackupPC requires a file for apache users. This file is referenced in
/etc/httpd/conf.d/BackupPC.conf and points to
/usr/share/BackupPC/apache.users.

I think that is a mistake, and such a file should better be placed in
/etc/BackupPC/apache.users.

If I change the path in conf.d/BackupPC.conf ; users who have modified
the .conf file will get a conf.rpmnew file ; that's fine.
The ones who did not change the .conf file will have it replaced by RPM,
breaking the apache authentication.

Any thoughts about that?

Thanks,
Johan
