Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] install to /usr/$(LIB)/ instead of /usr/lib

Actually, it's probably correct to always put vmxloader in /usr/lib, as it's a 32-bit binary. So probably one line of Rik's patch should be reverted?

Now I think about it, mem-map.sxp is not different on a 64-bit build either. Perhaps only qemu-dm need ever be installed under /usr/lib64?

Well, I have a patch almost ready to apply, but I'm really not sure where vmxloader and mem-map.sxp ought to go.

vmxloader is not a localhost executable or linkable object. It is a piece of binary code that runs in 32-bit protected mode within the vmx guest. mem-map.sxp is a config file, common to both i386 and x86_64, that describes the fake physical memory map for the vmx guest.

Should these go under /usr/lib64, or under /usr/lib, or somewhere else entirely? :-(
