FWIW, I'm pretty sure both Red Hat and Ubuntu, following the LSB and all, scatter their files in a decidedly standard way. Of course you are not required to like that way, but then you will have similar issues with most Linux binary packages. If you have particular and well-founded gripes with the package layout, a bug report would also work. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
