If you decide to compile your own packages from source and not use the packages as provided by the distribution, you are taking it entirely into your own hands and thereby rendering the reasoned placement moot. By convention, packages installed from source are placed in /usr/local, probably for very good reasons (i.e. no chance of tainting other necessary packages) Craig -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
