Can't bottom post. ./configure prefixdir = /usr should place all files in /usr. If it configures correctly run make Su to root and run make install.

Thank you fedora developers... I need to run the install script to put ngspice-25 on my system. I know that there is a default installation, but I do not know if that meets the current directory structure for F17 or later. Has anyone done this, and how did you go about it? I know I can pass -prefix to change the binary directory, but from what I can tell, /usr/local/bin would appear to be ok, and /usr/sbin would be OK, but I cannot tell if the files that for ngspice-23 in /usr/share/ngspice would be replaced. I cannot find the /usr/share directory referenced in the config script. I suspect that it is created from the several variables referring to the directories in the script, but I cannot tell which one it would be or where the files would end up from using search on the 17000 line configure script. Also do I need to uninstall ngspice-23? I have several designs that work under 23 and I am worried that -25 version may break some of them. Therefore I would like to have both versions available for a short time until I can verify my current stuff works under the -25 version. Thanks for any information.
