Possibly more importantly, /usr should be solely managed by the package management system of your distribution, while /usr/local should be reserved for things you install from source. And some would say you should never side-step your package manager and *only* install from packages globally, and install stuff from source in a user-specific prefix. But I'm sure opinions differ :) Thomas _______________________________________________ gnome-devel-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-devel-list
