rpm created stenographer doesn't run

[ct0br0]

Used the spec file to create an rpm.
But after install, stenographer does not run.
No error messages, with defaults, -v, -config, -syslog.
Ran as root, as service with stenographer.
Just exits, $? is 1

stenokeys.sh does not run properly

had to comment out the CertPath variable lines
not sure where CertPath is supposed to be brought in
https://github.com/google/stenographer/blob/master/stenokeys.sh#L143

then running as root, errors came

running as stenographer user as a service works

[gconnell]

getvar is supposed to (and apparently fails to?) read the CertPath from your stenographer config.

looks like it's hardcoded to /etc/stenographer/config too?
