I certainly understand the desire for integration with distro specific file locations but the vast, vast majority of FreeSWITCH installs are done using the standard layout installed to either /opt/freeswitch or /usr/local/freeswitch.
I don't really have strong feelings here, but I'll note that an increasing number of people are installing FS by way of our Debian packages -- we're starting to promote this method -- and those packages install FS per the FHS, e.g. /usr/bin/freeswitch, /var/lib/freeswitch/db, /usr/share/freeswitch/sounds, etc. Ken's RPMs for Redhat/CentOS, as I understand, install FS similarly. For the purposes here, targeting the packaged installs means that, unlike an installation from source, you can be 100% sure where things are going to be located, and because we're following FHS, these locations are exceedingly unlikely to change.
