Description:

This is more a doubt than anything else.
At work I manage several Debian-based servers (Bind, Apache2, ProFTP, Postfix and MySQL) and although I'm not a fan of Debian I find the way they organized those packages is pretty tidy and intuitive.
However I found rather difficult the way you organized Bind9 configuration files in Arch, I expected to find them in it's own directory, maybe something like /etc/bind9 or so instead being just dump in /etc.

Can you please think about it and relocate these files into it's own directory as already do apache2 (/etc/httpd) and postfix (/etc/postfix) packages?
Thank you very much.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
extra/bind 9.7.2.P2-1 [1,72 M]

* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
# pacman -S bind
This task depends upon

We prefer not to tamper with upstream's choices when possible.
