Merged.
If another tools (and we share login.defs with them) already use it
then it's good argument to support this feature in utitl-linux too.
I did small changes to the patch to integrate it with our build system
in better way.
What about support $vendordir as variable for pkg-config? Something
like:
pkg-config --variable=vendordir libeconf
after that we can use it in ./configure to avoid "--with-vendordir
<dir>". We already use the same for bash-completion or systemd
specific dirs.
