So the only way I can think of how to change this is to add another option to optionally remove the dovecot/ suffix from the directory, but is this really worth the trouble?
I would appreciate such option too. For large dedicated installations other schemes than /etc/dovecot are common.
See http://dovecot.org/list/dovecot/2009-January/036131.html
Yes, I was also thinking about that, but it's about removing the dovecot/ suffix from other directories as well. That might be something worth doing (--without-package-suffix or something?).
well squid is using another way such as the directory you specify and without the /dovecot (squid) suffix. it's not that important. if you do change the config directory you know where you are putting it. i,m using the /opt/(service name) to install most of my self complied software so idont really care about it.
but if the sysconfig directory as a directive it should be the default.
