I don't know if they are following FHS, but I doubt they use /opt. The opensuse package/specfile can be found at: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/filesystems/xfstests The rpms including the source rpm can be downloaded from: http://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=filesystems&package=xfstests Note the specfile applies a patch to change the install aspect of the tarball immediately after untar'ing it. I don't maintain that so I don't know why the patch is needed. Greg -- Sent from my Android phone with K-9 Mail.
