If it were to be installed in custom directory, I found out that a kind of isolation is the best approach. I use /opt/custom and compile/install in /opt/custom/<application> Then I add to the global or users PATH /opt/custom/<application>/bin I also found out that creating /opt/custom/<application> and chown to a users and compiling/installing with that user prevents from broken installers. The method never failed, although in recent years I have reduced the applications there to absolute minimum in favor to debian packages. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting
