I'd say /usr/bin/ is a common place for the binaries on Linux
distributions (often used for SuSE- and RedHat-packages). $FG_ROOT
often belongs into /usr/share/FlightGear/ or /usr/lib/FlightGear/ (as
for recent SuSE distributions).
In order to comply with common practice on commercial Unices
(FrameMaker, Acrobat, OpenOffice, Firefox, Fore ATM drivers, Sybase as
examples) I decided to get along with /opt/FlightGear/bin/, .../data/
at least on Solaris and IRIX (and on Linux and FreeBSD as well, in
order to not confuse myself  :-)

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 I would like to compile a list of the default directories that FG gets
 installed to when FG is installed from pre built packages (like win32,
 apt-get, urpmi, etc).
 
 I'm not interested in custom builds as they could be placed anywhere
 on a disk. Unfortunately I don't have the time or resources to install
 every OS to test it out so I would appreciate some help in compiling a
 list. E-mailing me off list for this would probably be a good idea
 since this won't interest most people.
 
 I need the paths to :
 1. the fgfs binary and
 2. the fg root (data) path
 for at least these distros/OS's :
 
 Debian

..1: /usr/games/fgfs
..2: /usr/share/games/FlightGear
ii  fgfs-base   0.9.5-1 Flight Gear Flight Simulator --base files 
ii  flightgear   0.9.5-1 Flight Gear Flight Simulator

 Gentoo
 Mandrake
 Redhat
 Suse
 Windows 2000
 Windows XP
 Mac OSX
 If I left your distro or OS out you're welcome to send me the info.
 
 The M$ OS's are the most important to me since most of the users are
 not as clued up with things like paths as the *nix guys and I'm doing
 this for idiot friendly purposes.
 
 Thanks
 Paul

Thanks Paul I will take that as a compliment.As one of the idiot friendly I 
can use all
the help I can get.As I don't understand paths all that well.

Cheers
