When the apache config file is stored below /etc/httpd, any Javascript library has to depend on apache. How about providing the config files somewhere else, so that any user who wants to use it, can symlink it from /etc/httpd or copy it?

That's a good point. I looked at how MochiKit is currently packaged and it does store files in /etc/httpd/conf.d and it does require httpd. Probably not what we want as general policy.

Options:
1) config files should be placed in /etc/SOMETHING
  A) Users can symlink them if they have apache
(Thanks Till)

2) Use %triggers to symlink automatically (triggers can be problematic in the long term)

3) Start using %{_sysconfdir}/httpd/conf.d the same way we use %{_sysconfdir}/bash_completion.d and have all packages that install files there own it.

4) Have filesystem own %{_sysconfdir}/httpd/conf.d or another directory that apache is set to read configs from (this is the approach of xinetd.d)

Comments on why some of these should be preferred?
