[gentoo-dev] make install suggestion/question

[Aaron Blew]

I have question/suggestion.  Is it really necessary to put mozilla,
gnome and others in /opt?  I know it keeps it a bit more organzed and
such, but it really makes it a pain when compiling things. Some
programs, despite what they're told to use via the configure script
insist on using includes from /usr/include instead of
/opt/gnome/include.  If not changing it, at least provide sympolic links
or something (ie ln -s /usr/gnome/include/* /usr/include/ ).  I think it
would solve quite a few problems.
