I'm pretty sure it does but I don't run anything out of /usr/local, not
because I have a problem with it, but because I never install stuff
manually. Even with small programs I always build RPMs, so everything just
goes in /usr. A nice side effect is I don't have to worry about having (or
having a bad) make uninstall since RPM takes care of that. The spec file
creates a very nice and consistent way to apply patches, hacks, and other
tweaks without having to remember what I did every time the code gets
updated.
