My 2 cents: After being convinced that the new "default" installation (versioned) was a good thing, I was happy with the default BRLCAD_INSTALL_ROOT (/usr/brlcad/rel-X.Y.Z or the corresponding /usr/brlcad/dev-X.Y.Z). (Though I don't understand why we need symlinks from there to standard system directories.) I don't want to go back to having to specify my own installation places--I just want something I can count on (e.g., MANPATH, PATH, etc., based on a constant relation to BRLCAD_INSTALL_ROOT).
