I do it so I have two programs on a system with different features. Often of different versions. The version my distribution has sometimes is not the one that I want. The Linux Standard Base (LSB) is designed to accommodate doing this in fact with /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin, now /opt too. So I suppose it is not too far fetched. ------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this list, please email [email protected] & you will be removed.Yahoo!
