src/config.h.in: Namespace the default configuration file location with the project's name "umurmur", as in that location also the required certificates are expected by default and using a namespaced location makes sense as to not clutter the SYSCONFDIR (e.g. /etc/) with more files, as a namespace is necessary anyways. CMakeLists.txt: Install the default configuration file to a "umurmur" namespaced location. Fixes umurmur#169

In #164 I changed the default configuration file location to be namespaced. Upon request by @fatbob313 this has been amended in #165 to be without namespace again.
As mentioned in #165 (comment) (after the fact) I believe the default configuration file location should actually be namespaced, given, that umurmur relies on a keypair, that needs to be stored in a location, that it has access to (but ideally no other application). In the default configuration file, this is taking place in a namespaced location below
/etc/. This is the reason, why I believe the default location of the configuration file should be below that directory as well, as it makes no sense to clutter/etc/with more files, if a directory is already in use.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
