But for a general solution, do you think it's more clean to have
the same directory with identical properties in multiple

This question is somewhat redundant in the context of this upstream
mailing list, since each distribution will make that decision and
choose a packaging strategy consistent with their own policies.
The important point was the previous one, which is that rpm would
support and handle these approaches correctly, so it's not of
sufficient concern per se to avoid /var/log/clusterlabs. (I'm
assuming that .deb does too, although that should be checked.)
Distributions can be stricter than what the rpm command accepts.
E.g. Fedora package review guidelines (and thus RHEL and derivatives):
"Packages must not own files or directories already owned by other
packages." (with rare exceptions)
Interesting, looks like that is a deviation from openSUSE.
It makes my life easier to stick with /var/log/pacemaker :-) because I
don't have to coordinate with all the other projects on the
/var/log/cluster vs /var/log/clusterlabs question, and it will work on
all distros without modification. But if there's a strong sentiment for
a common log directory, we still have time to do it.
I'm fine with whatever you think's best :-)
