In working with the fluentd packaging from the opstools sig, I think
we need to make at least two changes:

- For type=tail sources, fluentd really wants a pos_file parameter to
  track the file position.  It would be helpful if we created
  /run/fluentd via /etc/tmpfiles.d as a common location for storing
  these files.

+1 - as long as the location is configurable. OpenShift typically keeps its pos_file in the log directory (e.g. /var/log) that is mounted from the host.


- I think that the *_secure_forward plugins (which permit using ssl
  for communication between a fluentd client and a collector) are
  going to be a necessity for just about everybody, so these should
  probably be packaged in manner similar to the elasticsearch plugin.

+1 - gem2rpm for starters. But watch out because gem2rpm will sometimes generate too many Requires and BuildRequires which aren't really needed, and will miss some Requires and BuildRequires, and see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Ruby?rd=Packaging/Ruby
