Please don't do this. You can put it in /opt if you really want, but RPMs
should *never* touch /usr/local. Depending on the program, though, stuff
you're putting here might be better off in /usr/share/<your_program> or
/usr/lib/<my_program> or some of both.

Depends -- some libraries might just go in /usr/lib.
