/me throws in /usr/share/layman |

OTOH, I really think /usr/local/layman is OK as long as it's |
| 17 |
runtime-generated and not added by the ebuild. That should satisfy bug |
| 18 |
253725, and prevent another painful location move. It also makes sense |
| 19 |
from the "/usr/local is user/admin domain" since only running the |
| 20 |
layman tool will cause those directories to be created. |
