Where it is best to provide such resources? > /usr/share is called "share" because it's sharable between architectures. That's why %{_datadir} should not contain architecture specific files. Those files should go to %{_libdir} if it is a dynamic shared object, i.e. a library, or a plugin), otherwise, there is a catch-all %{_libexecdir} directory for all the other cases, especially for standalone executables. Another decision factor between %{_libdir} and %{_libexecdir} is whether the file is expected to be installed multiple times for more architectures at the same time (multi-lib). Then %{_libdir} is more suitable because it already embeds the architecture in its path prefix. -- Petr
