That’s not a problem. The only thing that is needed is to be able to select the path at installation time, just like we do with autoconf. BTW, I’m all for making /usr/local the default, since /usr being the default leads to manual installation overwriting packages instead of going to /usr/local. > Furthermore, if by standard you mean */share/locale/XX/LC_MESSAGES/, what > good would an egg do at that place? In the egg distribution, they can go at another place. Again, not a problem as long as we have a flag somewhere that can install them to the place we like. Cheers, -- .''`. : :' : We are debian.org.
