[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/exim: fix log and pid file paths

flat view
STALE2362d

From: Pascal de Bruijn <hidden>
Date: 2020-03-02 10:19:02
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

both the logs and pid should not be placed in /var/spool

we place the log in /var/log/exim and
we place the pid in /var/run/exim

using binary name subdirectory in both cases allows for the
use of systemd's LogsDirectory and RuntimeDirectory statements
