"I prepared a small patch for Gaim's manual page. The patch makes
Gaim's installation path variable (depending on "./configure
--prefix=/my/path").
Without this patch, "man gaim" always gives you the default path:
FILES
/usr/local/bin/gaim: gaim's default location.
/usr/local/lib/gaim/: gaim's plugins directory.
~/.gaim/prefs.xml: gaim's configuration file.
...
With my patch, the manual page gives my real patch, for instance:
FILES
/opt/gnome/bin/gaim: gaim's location.
/opt/gnome/lib/gaim/: gaim's plugins directory.
~/.gaim/prefs.xml: gaim's configuration file.'
