.debs using /usr/local/

1999-05-02 Thread Michael Stenner

I though that, as a general policy, .debs didn't put anything in the /usr/local/ tree. However, I'm pretty (i.e. 99%) sure that in my slink r0 install, a few things were put in there - some python, tex, and emacs things, actually. Anyone know anything about this? Am I just nuts?
