Description SpanKY gentoo-dev

packages should not create crap in /usr but ntlmaps does for some reason

could be /usr/lib a better solution? or where can I find a standard for gentoo file location (beside FSH)?

i have no idea what ntlmaps is so i cant tell you where it should be ...

in terms of Gentoo filesystem policy, one doesnt exist because i havent written it up from the QA thread yet

it is basically a proxy, like squid. Beside configuration and docs, the package is all under /usr/ntlmaps.

then it should probably be broken up to install files in the correct locations

binaries -> /usr/bin
libraries -> /usr/lib
shared non-arch-specific-files -> /usr/share/ntlmaps
config files -> /etc/ntlmaps
etc...

version bumped to 0.9.9
hopefully, the stink of windoze have been removed.
now this program gets installed in the traditional *nix way.
