Otherwise, why do we have > domains at all ? :-) Well, according to the FHS, if you download GNUstep and compile it on your own (not obtaining it from your distribution), then it should go under /usr/local, or /opt. In which case, Local and System are probably equivalent, since GNUstep itself is a "local" package, and there is no distribution involved. But if you obtain GNUstep from your distribution, then it should definitely go under /usr. So IMHO by default, the System and Local domains should be /usr/local, but the distributions will of course override that for their own packages. -- Hubert Chan - email & Jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.uhoreg.ca/ PGP/GnuPG key: 1024D/124B61FA (Key available at wwwkeys.pgp.net) Fingerprint: 96C5 012F 5F74 A5F7 1FF7 5291 AF29 C719 124B 61FA _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
