Now I'm really confused, because I received the opposite advice a couple of years ago, cf unixODBC.spec: * Fri Jun 13 2008 Tom Lane <tgl@xxxxxxxxxx> 2.2.12-8 - Install icons in /usr/share/pixmaps, not /usr/share/icons as this package has historically done; the former is considered correct. Digging further, the reason I changed it is because Red Hat's rpmdiff tool whinged about the previous placement. Somebody is not on the right page here. regards, tom lane -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
