Instead of modifying the package, you can simply create some symlinks so
the logs and configuration are stored on the data disk:
Before installing the rpm (and after having mounted the dedicated
partition in /var/lib/BackupPC), just do:
mkdir -p /var/lib/BackupPC/{etc,log}
ln -s /var/lib/BackupPC/etc /etc/BackupPC
ln -s /var/lib/BackupPC/log /var/log/BackupPC
I do this on a lot of servers so I can simply take the disk off one
server, and plug into another, and the data+config are immediately
available.
I don't use this rpm but the one in the EPEL repo on Centos 4 based
system (SME Server). I think it'll work the same way with this one.
Cheers, Daniel
