The current default is "/usr/local". This seems to be better suited,
because many users do apply Tramp on your local builds of
(X)Emacs.
"/usr/share" is the place a Linux distribution puts (X)Emacs
packages. I believe it is less common that somebody has a
distribution-provided (X)Emacs, and an own-compiled Tramp; but I might
be wrong.
I've adapted the following in the Tramp installation chapter (for the
Emacs case):
By default, `make install' will install TRAMP's files in
`/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp' and `/usr/local/info'. You can
specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
`configure' the option `--prefix=PATH'. On Linux systems, it has been
reported usefull to apply
./configure --prefix=/usr/share
Is that sufficient?
Best regards, Michael.
