You should check with Paul Jakma as he began work on this earlier.  He
ran a ARC case for version 0.9999 which was approved

        PSARC/2007/609  Alpine: Mail User Agent

Check with Paul first to see where he is on this.

Nothing should be delivering into /usr/local or /opt.  The standard
locations of /usr/bin, /usr/lib, /usr/share/man, /usr/sbin, etc are the
right place.
