This is definitely the right place. And people are reading it, just not 
replying :-). Your patch certainly seems reasonable, and it will 
probably get incorporated into the next release (by people other than 
myself as I'm not one of the developers).

I wonder though, if making the plugin directory separately configurable 
is all that we should do. If LIBDIR is /usr/lib64, shouldn't the 
tunepimp plugins be (by default auto-configuration) in a subdirectory of 
that? For example, instead of

#define PLUGIN_DIR PREFIX"/lib/tunepimp/plugins"

use something like

#define PLUGIN_DIR LIB_DIR"/tunepimp/plugins"

where LIB_DIR is the directory where the libtunepimp.so or DLL or 
whatever will be installed?
(this would be in addition to your patch)
