Reworked the install and packaging so it results in the same installation whatever the build is (manual, deb pkg or rpm pkg)

No need to %__cp %{SOURCE1}. File already there. Note: using more than one source prevent a build from tarball using rpmbuild -tb ganglia-web-3.5.12.tar.gz for instance.

[build & packaging] Reworked the install and packaging so it results in the same installation whatever the build is (manual, deb pkg or rpm pkg)

• Use Makefile to make install for deb and rpm as well including config files.
• Include specfile in the dist-gzip so a rpmbuild -tb (tarbuild) can be used
• Added customization for rpmbuild using --with tags (see spec file for usage and more details).
• Use adequate default values for rpm. The apache_user is not www-data. it's apache...
• Use /etc/ganglia-webfrontend to store conf.php what ever the distro is. Make sure that a link is set to apache config dir using triggers or postinstall.
• Use /etc/ganglia-webfrontend to store conf.php what ever the distro is. Use a generic conf.php in /usr/share/ganglia-webfrontend to load the file from /etc/ganglia-webfrontend.
• Replaced vargwebstatedir with vargwebdir in conf_default.php.in and Makefile.
• filters dir was not created under debian pkg or manual make install
• Added possibility to have a httpd_group different from user. For instance you can choose to install files under apache.daemon identity. If not specified, a group with the same name as the user is used.
• Added comment in the install section of the Makefile so it's clear.
• Reworked dist-gzip target so version.php and spec file are generated while other .in files remain so they can be tuned by make or make install.
• Make sure that sharedstatedir is not owned by rpm package (conflict on fc-18+), and updated %file section accordingly.
• Removed the manual install and specific config files in debian packaging. Using standard make install DESTDIR=...

Tested on ubuntu 12.04: Works perfectly. Tested on centos-6.5: Works perfectly. Tested on fedora-17: Works perfectly.

Small fix that prevent to fall in a situation similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/rpm/+bug/930471 Thus using --with web_prefixdir=/usr/share/ganglia-webfrontend --with httpd_user=www-data would end up having the following lua variables: %web_prefixdir = /usr/share/ganglia_webfrontend %httpd_user = www_data

Hopefully, this time, there is no more mistakes :)

--with doesn't accept value assignation and was apparently an unsupported option in previous rpm versions. Fixed by replacing --with var=value with --define 'var value' Aslo made Makefile more smart and more vebose. Splitted install: rule in 2 rules: one that installs the files and one that does the chown. Thus package can be built with non-root account.
