For example, when following the instructions to build and install, using build.sh, to /usr/local, aside from installing into /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib, there are a bunch of docs and XML files installed into the /usr/local parent directory, which aren't necessary. These, if they need to be there, at all, should probably NOT be in /usr/local- perhaps in a subdirectory of /usr/local/share (/manual should CERTAINLY be under /usr/local/share): CONTRIBUTORS INSTALL KEYS LICENSE NOTICE README WHATSNEW contributors.xml fetch.xml get-m2.xml patch.xml /manual
All these files should be in /usr/local/share/ant, cf FHS or freedesktop.org recommendations... in 1.11?
