Hi Ivan and all,

Where should we be installing local programs in? I install KDE
programs with --prefix=/usr/local and they don't seem to work
correctly unless I install them under /usr. They will not be
able to access their data files and so forth. How can I install
my local programs under /usr/local and have them work without
such problems?

The problem so far occured at least with kbiff and ksetiwatch.
They insist on being installed directly in /usr which leaves
a lot of cruft.

Thanks,
