We may want to tailor corlib to a little-endian or big-endian arch, for example, or some specific Linux/libc version so that would need to go into /usr/lib/... Until that is done, though, using /usr/share/mono/... is fine with me for the mono-specific libs (corlib, System, maybe also System.Xml). When we'll implement the GAC, assemblies will need to be installed in it with a mono-provided tool and the place would be inside /usr/lib/mono since we'll store the ngen'ed data there, but the actual directory used by the GAC is not important, since no user tool needs to look into it. lupus -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] debian/rules [EMAIL PROTECTED] Monkeys do it better _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
