Hello Doruk,

Package manager should not undertake creating _usable_ configuration, this is
configuration manager prerogative. The PM must create a sample configuration
("Welcome to Nginx").

I would declare your conf file as %doc, then rpmbuild will put it to
/usr/share/doc/%{name}-%{version}/

Experienced users will see it and fit to their needs. Beginners will ignore it
and copy-paste configs from forums anyway :)
