What "library default"?
11.8.7. Installation directory issues
-------------------------------------
Packages using the X Window System should not be configured to install
files under the /usr/X11R6/' directory unless they use make'. The
/usr/X11R6/' directory hierarchy should be regarded as deprecated for
all packages except the X Window System itself, and those which use
the make' program it provides, in which case the packages may
transition out of the /usr/X11R6/' directory at the maintainer's
discretion.[1]
