Yep, I looked at that, but there is some problems... The first one is
about rc.d scripts. I've also seen in that file that there are some
vars like RCD_SCRIPTS*. I guess that they work more or less like
CONF_FILES so they can be useful for samba rc.d scripts, for example.
Although, they default directory is /etc/rc.d :? Shouldn't it be
something like ${PKG_SYSCONFBASE}/rc.d?

Well, the other problem is the following. Suppose I compile a program
and I specify that its configuration files should go in some "temporary"
directory, say share (--sysconfdir=3D${PREFIX}/share/examples/package_name).
Then, even if I use CONF_FILES, the package will keep looking in
share, instead of what CONF_FILES say, because the path has been hardcoded
into the code... Am I right?

Thank you.
