Oh, I'm fine with --enable-layout=classic which reverts Havoc's model to what we had before. The key point for me is to allow the admin not to be forced into a particular model. We can both co-exist in our little worlds - which is acceptable to me (and I hope to you). You have your reasons for using that model, I have my reasons for thinking it's overboard - which is that a prefix containing an explicit version resolves the parallel concerns (i.e. /opt/apr-0.9.0 or /opt/apr-0.9 or /opt/apr-0). If you don't have a versioned prefix, yes, you need Havoc's model. It does make sense to make your design the default, since that lets newbies configure it in a sensible (to them) manner. But, we should have the flexibility to allow for circumstances where it isn't helpful. -- justin
