* SYSCONFDIR is /etc by default now * LOCALSTATEDIR is /var by default now * OPENVAS_RUN_DIR is /run/ospd by default now * OPENVAS_FEED_LOOK_PATH is /var/lib/openvas/feed-update.lock by default now /run/ospd is used because normally openvas is started from ospd-openvas which by default uses the /run/ospd path in the systemd service file. This ensures that the directory for the OPENVAS_RUN_DIR exists at runtime. /var/lib/openvas/feed-update.lock is used because the sync scripts may be started when the services are stopped an /run/ospd (or an other directory in /run) is not available anymore.

What:
now
/run/ospd is used because normally openvas is started from ospd-openvas
which by default uses the /run/ospd path in the systemd service file.
This ensures that the directory for the OPENVAS_RUN_DIR exists at
runtime.
/var/lib/openvas/feed-update.lock is used because the sync scripts may
be started when the services are stopped an /run/ospd (or an other
directory in /run) is not available anymore.
Why:
Use better and sane defaults.
