Both unfortunately. There's a couple of site-wide configuration files which appear to be read only, and a tree of user files. (One for each user registered upon the site, etc). Unfortunately these files must reside in the same location, so splitting them into a conf file and some data files doesn't appear to be an option. > Shouldn't they be installed as whatever user Apache is running as when > installed out of the box (or you could even parse the httpd.conf in > your postinst)?

Within the postinst I can change the ownership of the directory, and it's contents to the www-run, or whatever, user.
