RPM packages has a cron job setup that uses dedicated file instead of /etc/...

[func0der]

I am not that familiar with the setup of RPM packages, but I find the setup of the RPM package kind of confusing.

It creates a /etc/ocsinventory/ocsinventory-agent.cfg file.
As it lies under /etc it is the default place where I would look for the configuration for any software that is installed globally on a system.

Then there is the /etc/sysconfig/ocsinventory-agent which partially duplicates the /etc file.
It seems to only be used by /usr/libexec/ocsinventory-agent/ocsinventory-agent.cron which is used in the systemd service ocsinventory-agent.service.

Why are they two different sets of configs that I have to configure AND find in order to get the agent to work?

As far as I see the cron does not even work if the MODE is not set to cron, which is not really document. At least I did not find anything in the documentation about it (https://wiki.ocsinventory-ng.org/search.html?q=OCSMODE).
The whole package is a guessing game. (The whole client configuration is :P)

Could you shine some light on this, please?
