Agreed. In SBo packages, /usr/local is *never* acceptable.

Some things you can try:

- Look for a cmake option to set the installation prefix to /usr instead
of /usr/local.  If you still have the directory in /tmp/SBo/<dirname>,
cd to /tmp/SBo/<dirname>/build and type 'ccmake ..' and look at all the
config options to see if one of them is set to /usr/local (you might
have to type 't' to use advanced mode) and then change the SlackBuild to
set that cmake option to /usr

- Look at CMakeLists.txt for some braindead hardcoded /usr/local, if so,
use sed in the SlackBuild to change it to /usr

Thanks
-D.
