--- Comment #5 from Kaleb KEITHLEY <kkeithle at redhat.com> ---
What needinfo are you asking me for? Are you asking whether I agree with nh2
about using the PATH instead of hard-coded FQ paths? I suppose in general I do
agree.

If by compile time options you mean either some sort of autoconf build magic or
a maze of feature test macros in the source to attempt to use a FQ path to
every tool on every Linux distribution (to say nothing of *BSD) then I think
that's a recipe for a maintenance nightmare.

Submit the patch in gerrit on review.gluster.org against the master branch.
Once it has been reviewed and merged on the master branch then if you want you
can submit a separate backport the 3.11, 3.10, and 3.8 branches.
