Hi,

either directory is fine, but they have to match.

By default the RRDtool plugin uses the …/collectd/rrd directory and the
CSV plugin uses the …/collectd/csv directory, so both plugin can be
active at the same time without getting in each other's way.

Why's that? It's data written at run-time, so $localstatedir (i.e. /var)
is the right place for this.

Yeah, I think so ;)
