I'm new to the porting process and currently trying to port a java
application server.
From the porters handbook and hier man page I can figure out where
most files should be installed however I'm stumped as to where this
ports log files should be located.
I note some ports write to /var/log and others to
${PREFIX}/portname/log.
hier(7) states /var/log is for *system* log files, should that include
ports? Also, placing logs in the middle of a somewhat static file
structure under ${PREFIX}/portname/log strikes me as odd.
Anyone have any pointers?
Thanks in advance.
