misleading README?

[bfallik]

Hi,

Apologies if this isn't the right place to log my request. I followed the Contact button from copr.

The README at /etc/prometheus/node_exporter/text_collectors/ says This is a place for textfile collectors for node_exporter but that seems incorrect. According to /etc/sysconfig/node_exporter the node_exporter is passed --collector.textfile.directory /var/lib/node_exporter/textfile_collector on startup.

Any chance the packaging could be improved to either correct the README in /etc/prometheus to point the naive user (e.g. me) at /var/lib/node_exporter/... or else move the README under /var/lib/node_exporter/text_collectors and, ideally, not stop creating the unused /etc/prometheus/node_exporter/text_collectors/ directory.
