I believe there was an announcement on this mailing list alerting that the new rpms would be undergoing major changes to include moving the directory locations. Search this list for new threads started by SwK in the past 6 months.

Who’s idea was it to move the freeswitch directories in the RPM and why?

 

Is it too much to ask that directories are standardized and don’t change?!

 

Do you know how distruptive it is when you move all the config files from /opt to /etc.!  Not only that but the hierarchy has been changed.  The /conf directory has been removed even though it’s in all the documentation on the Freeswitch wiki.  Wtf?  I am used to config files being in /etc for Asterisk.  Despite all the disadvantages with Asterisk at least they are sticking with that decision!  Of course if I compile from scratch I suppose I can choose  the directory myself but for various reasons I used the RPM so I don’t have much choice in the matter unless I want to make my own RPM which isn’t very good use of my time imho.  But wait, it gets worse!  Whoever made this decision decided just moving everything and getting rid of /conf directory was not disruptive enough.  So they decided to split it up and leave the sound files where they are in /opt/freeswitch.  Again, wtf?!
