I wouldn't expect any distro to *ship* stuff in /usr/local. It's the path used for stuff that's outside of distro territory - i.e. what users do on their system outside of "packaged" stuff. So the fact that /usr/local/... is empty or non-existent is pretty much the expected behaviour :) Col -- Colin Guthrie gmane(at)colin.guthr.ie http://colin.guthr.ie/ Day Job: Tribalogic Limited http://www.tribalogic.net/ Open Source: Mageia Contributor http://www.mageia.org/ PulseAudio Hacker http://www.pulseaudio.org/ Trac Hacker http://trac.edgewall.org/
