/usr/local most certainly not. Personally i am using /usr as i have no KDE4 installed. For the others i would imagine /opt/trinity as per instructions ... cmon .... 4 more letters is not really hard yakka.

Archers, All,
Currently, Arch installs trinity to /opt/trinity. Personally, I would like to move the default install to /opt/tde. Two reasons: (1) most important -- less typing; (2) the tradition of the install being in /opt/kde, why not standardize around /opt/tde?
For the rest of the community -- Where are you putting tde?
/usr/local

Isn't it easier to move to /usr from /usr/local?
A few simple sed's and the environment is fixed.
Ever look at startkde.ah or starttrinity.sh

Locally installed software must be placed within /usr/local rather than /usr unless it is being installed to >replace or upgrade software in /usr"
I use /usr/ for my packages installed from my repos. stuff in /usr/local is things I manually install, or keep back because I need them.
that is not a place for packages.
