? Did I miss something?  Why is it such a bad thing that programs should be
installable in a user specified place?  And why is RPM broken because of
that?  If I were to write a SPEC file that only root could execute because
during the install files get written to the "real" directories, that
wouldn't be a problem.  But that is *BAD* as far as creating the rpm file is
concerned.
