Indeed, I allow no executables in /bin /usr/bin unless put there by the system package manager. This is just being sensible. However I have a ~/Built hierarchy in which I put everything I build. With SCons, CMake, Autotools, etc. it is trivially easy to specify a destination location for installation. Go makes things a bit awkward, but their solution is cross-platform and so has some backing and rationale. Cargo doesn't have an install per se, but I bet there is a plugin for that. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:[email protected] 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: [email protected] London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
