[Fedora-directory-users] Changing filesystem path names from "fedora-ds" to "dirsrv"

We would like to separate the brand name from the filesystem path 
naming.  The packages will still be called fedora-ds-*.rpm, and if you 
run /usr/sbin/ns-slapd -v it will tell you that you are running Fedora 
Directory Server, but we would like to use "dirsrv" as the name in 
filesystem paths, so
 /etc/dirsrv
 /usr/lib/dirsrv
 /var/log/dirsrv
and so on.  From a code standpoint, this basically means the following 
change:

*** configure.ac.~1.35.~    2007-08-01 14:25:15.000000000 -0600
--- configure.ac    2007-08-09 10:14:20.000000000 -0600
***************
*** 2,8 ****
  # Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.
  AC_PREREQ(2.59)
  # This version is the version returned by ns-slapd -v
! AC_INIT([fedora-ds], [1.1.0a4], [http://bugzilla.redhat.com/])
  # AC_CONFIG_HEADER must be called right after AC_INIT.
  AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])
  AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.9 foreign subdir-objects])
--- 2,8 ----
  # Process this file with autoconf to produce a configure script.
  AC_PREREQ(2.59)
  # This version is the version returned by ns-slapd -v
! AC_INIT([dirsrv], [1.1.0a4], [http://bugzilla.redhat.com/])
  # AC_CONFIG_HEADER must be called right after AC_INIT.
  AC_CONFIG_HEADERS([config.h])
  AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE([1.9 foreign subdir-objects])

Then making sure we use PACKAGE_NAME for path naming consistently.

Your comments are welcome.
