Are you making an RPM, or just installing locally? For installing locally,
you *want* it to be going into /usr/local.
The default is /usr/local, and this results in my panel applet not
being
available from the menu. Now, I am trying to add a gconf schema (I think not
having one was causing bugs), and the schema is ending up getting installed
to /usr/etc which is clearly wrong.
Try "./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc". Or, if this is inside an
RPM spec file, use "%configure". (Run "rpm --eval
'%configure'" from the
command line to find out what all that sets.)
