Isn't your email/request rather a pretty good example why installing software to /usr/local is a bad idea wrt to system upgrades? I'd really suggest to install your special libraries, local software etc. either to /usr/local/$PACKAGE or /srv/local/$PACKAGE or somewhere else. You can use environment variables or rpath to make them work. -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
