Details

The sendfile package puts its configuration files (sendfile.cf and sendfile.deny) in /usr/etc/. At least on my system, it's the only package that does so. If there is no good reason for having /usr/etc/ just for sendfile, I would suggest to move them to /etc, where they BTW live on Debian/Ubuntu.

tom? any ideas? the site of the application doesnt seem to have any reference to it and the direct link to the sources. probably a leftover from the past..
