To the contrary, having it installed to a not user-writable place might distract from the fact that this example-preset exists to (and often even needs to) be customised.
If it's just an example, wouldn't it make more sense to just install it to /usr/share for the user to copy it to where he wants it?
That's how it was handled up to now, installed to /usr/share. I'd have to find a way to install an entire directory tree, including lots of files and some empty dirs, without maintaining Makefile.am's and such for every dir. Maybe I'm missing something and there's a simple way to recursively install a directory tree. Despite using google and reading quite a few docs on make and autools I didn't find a simple solution. Pointers are welcome. Installing it to /usr/share as a packed tarball would not give any benefit IMHO.
This is sort of an upstream issue. As things are now, I see no way to easily have it installed. If this changes in the future, I'll upload a new package; for now I suggest it be deleted.
cheers
Wait, do you need to actually do anything with the files before installing, or does it just copy the files when running make install? - -- Kindest Regards, Johannes Löthberg PGP Key ID: 583664EF Fingerprint: 14FD DCA8 4D41 FF41 78EF DD49 35CA 3661 5836 64EF -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJRKSxtAAoJEDXKNmFYNmTv8akQAOeH7/Ed94M/VbrRPN2dZYS4 7GMNzbuJs6HPsjNCGOyULYtDbLd+R00BzaN3KXaFH6tkwso4U6RqTSekFbYQ1Yku NgFrS30VpFwi9qK63qB8QFnSPG4Ai6mm2JMNxylQ7GUkeRs2n5YrUANjs4inomHN nhRU2oErNoKb9wfXYs2unJPI4pEJRRny+4w3PSyzrRUNRj/sBKMpmFsi521mGTzC 3RgQto21yFYKU71TD4N/RHZO2r0m5eOf5rjPwyDUDocb2gh2dzvhTvvEZVn9mYgr 2SpiPfMb+AKhU6E2Wi/O6HMXEPIMTQjwx84drwYtPwBnT4psGBjOBSxJ3sz9MYd9 opbY/H5EjtojV0dCB0kqNSiMt6i8oxid3PyJZ0Npsss74/A0WtazTIGdTi/iVY68 wJlO6MgoqlUcDas8mElCqhJ20DqddtfImppkXYsN6xWdRK589l/RgkFcSTwz7NSm WGxCoETw9tDLLqIMNxcF0JSR50ArGwI3I8zEVeo3I8gY+JgA/iKNsDMXKKLn0TB9 PjOROKMeeLQbcORkfUg43/xItN12NpgrRBiV1cTbGfewcXCqThxqvHC/wRQU0Du4 z80BYCvEvphgNvMvhy+9xq2AnohbcHjI3gCUd0oBGAJ0uvguJslsi0VqlrBz3aBd UEcYy437KMEGF+G7RucO =eKyi -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
