If Harbour is built from SVN using make_gnu.sh and make_gnu.sh install, the install defaults to /usr/local/bin /usr/local/lib/harbour and /usr/local/include/harbour. If rpms are made using mpkg_rpm.sh then the resulting rpms install Harbour in /usr/bin /usr/lib/harbour and usr/include/harbour.
This assumes that no environment variables are set.
I think that make_gnu.sh should use the same default paths as mpkg_rpm.sh and mpkg_rpm_from_svn.sh to avoid confusion.

No

that is standard behaviour and installing culture in *nix. In case installing thought script right place is /usr/local/* using package system like rpm or deb, there are possibility to install/upgrade/remove and in this case right place is /usr/*
You can to avoid that using environment variables

sorry I can to explain better due my bad English

OK, now I understand the reason.
Thank you for your explanation. Being quite new to Linux I have asked many people about the use of /usr/local vs. /usr and never before had a good explanation.
BTW your English is excellent!
Brgds, Barry
