In order to ease this problem I have reorganized the distribution package for
tex etc so that they are tarred relative to /usr/local rather than /. This means
that you can untar them in /usr or /usr/local (whichever takes your fancy).
IF you untar them in a directory other than /usr/local then you will need to set
the relevant environment variables (see man pages) to reflect this fact.
I have made other changes to seperate those files that are dependent on the
version of the binary used from those that aren't. See the README in
pub/linux/tex-etc on archsci.arch.su.oz.au (129.78.66.1)
I shall be following this convention for the jump table 4.1 versions also.
