purposes it mainly just requires installation into /opt
and not assuming the presence of certain libraries.
Essentially:
- --prefix=/opt
- statically linking with all C++ libraries (most
aren't guaranteed to be present by LSB, and we also

other libraries which LSB doesn't guarantee the presence of
This is such low-hanging fruit I think it'd be a shame
not to support it. For now, I'm assigning the RFE to
myself so it doesn't get forgotten, but if anyone else
wants to pick it up before I get to it (I've got a pile
of other work to get through), please be my guest.
