That depends: on my Tru64 based install, I'm installing _all_ RPMs under
/usr/local (to stay out of the way of the base OS and its packaging
system).  Also, where there are command overlaps, I can choose which
command I get based on my PATH setting (PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin
gets GNU style stuff first, which PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin gets
Tru64 stuff first).

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
