Description

Currently its installed to /usr/local by default, which is okay for dev-versions. the release should go to /usr to ease handling for packagers.

I disagree with this proposal for reasons as detailed in ticket 68. The default location should remain /usr/local since this is where user-installed packages should go. Package maintainers deal with install location all the time - it's basically part of their job. Pieter, it's probably your call ultimately but I would strongly lobby for /usr/local to remain the default location.

What *would* benefit package maintainers is a working DESTDIR feature. See ticket 68 for the rationale.
