Please be aware that not everyone has access to the Apache configuration. Actually most people using hosted services don't have.
Sure, my proposal doesn't help those users, but neither does it make things any worse for them. What would you suggest instead?
I think currently, this is a none issue. :)
But being productive I suggest that instead of an env variable (which setting is so system specific etc.), I think we could implement a constant in index.php which would direct the code to the location of the configuration files. If empty, fall back on "local" (which is roundcube/config/).
This could be overwritten/replaced with a simple sed by a package maintainer if he thinks this is absolutely necessary.
Bottom line is though, I feel like the advantage of roundcube is unzip and go (almost literally), what you are doing makes it harder for the end user to deal with it. Not everyone running roundcube is a system administrator - it's more the contrary.
And personally I don't want to support people - "my distro puts it in /etc", "my distro puts it in /usr/local/etc" etc. pp.. :-)
My two cents (currently USD) :D
