Note this quote from the abiword download page: ---------- AbiWord will now be installed in /usr/share/AbiSuite. Symbolic links called AbiWord and abiword will be installed in /usr/bin. -----------
A few weeks ago I tried to install Abiword 0.9.4 on my RedHat 7.1, using the rpm. Though this may be considered strange, my /usr/share and /usr/bin filesystems are on different partitions. rpm refused to install abiword because (apparently) the rpm wanted to make hard links from /usr/share/AbiSuite to /usr/bin (the error messages I got suggested this). If this is true, is it necessary to use hard links, as opposed to symbolic links? I only put /usr/share on a separate partition cuz it was huge (lots of LaTeX fonts).
