    Perhaps the correct place for autopublish, notifyevents, etc, is /usr/sbin ?
    And they should only be run by root, right?
    Any comments?

    This is not a good idea. If sbin, than I vote for /usr/local/sbin
    But as all campsites binaries are in /usr/local/campsite/bin, than quite
    logical would be only two steps:
    Case 1) Put all campsite binaries to /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin
    Case 2) Put all campsite binaries to /usr/local/campsite/bin
    and /usr/local/campsite/sbin

    Please try to keep it consistent.

    That was my idea Ondra, I didn't mean to put them in /sbin!!!

    The default config will be: /usr/local/campsite/bin and
    /usr/local/campsite/sbin

    The user will be able to change the CAMPSITE_BIN and CAMPSITE_SBIN directories.

    I think that the correct place for RPM-based installations is is
    /usr/bin, /usr/sbin etc. Only for ad-hoc software installation should
    one use /usr/local.

    IMHO Mugur's solution is best. Use local/campsite/bin[sbin] and for
    those who wish to, they can change location while being compilled.
    If this is done, you can always ad dproper parameters when building rpm
    package to redirect to /usr/bin[sbin]
