[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-7159) mark configuration files in confluent-kafka RPM SPEC file

Robert created KAFKA-7159:
-----------------------------

             Summary: mark configuration files in confluent-kafka RPM SPEC file
                 Key: KAFKA-7159
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7159
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: packaging
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
         Environment: RHEL7
            Reporter: Robert


All configuration files in confluent-kafka-<scala_version> RPM SPEC file should be marked with %config prefix in %files section.

This would prevent overwrites during install/upgrade and uninstall operations

[https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html-single/rpm_packaging_guide/index#files]

It's especially important to save configuration during package upgrades.

Section to change in SPEC file:
{code:java}
%files
%config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/kafka/*.conf
%config(noreplace) %{_sysconfdir}/kafka/*.properties
{code}
It would also be good to mark documentation files with %doc
