As an attempt to compromise between the users who want the old layout
and those who want an FHS style layout, I propose having the package do
both. That is, the files would be put on disk under /opt/fedora-ds,
then symlinks would be created to those files and directories to
correspond to the FHS layout.
For example, /var/log/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/access would just be a
symlink to /opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/logs/access
or
/etc/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/dse.ldif would just be a symlink to
/opt/fedora-ds/slapd-instance/config/dse.ldif
Rationale:
1) allows admins already familiar with fedora ds layout to continue to
use current tools/processes (e.g. tar up contents/restore contents,
which is much more difficult with FHS layout)
2) allows admins familiar with FHS to find files in familiar places
