4.4.3.1 Installation directories

By default 32-bit LispWorks is installed in /usr/lib/LispWorks and a symbolic link to the executable is placed in /usr/bin/lispworks-6-0-0-x86-linux . Similarly, 64-bit LispWorks is installed in /usr/lib64/LispWorks and a symbolic link to the executable is placed in /usr/bin/lispworks-6-0-0-amd64-linux . However, the RPM is relocatable, and the --prefix option can be used to allow the installation of LispWorks in a non-default directory. The default prefix is /usr .

Note: RPM version 4.2 has a bug which can hinder secondary installations (CLIM, Common SQL, LispWorks ORB or KnowledgeWorks) in a user-specified directory. See RPM_INSTALL_PREFIX not set for a workaround.

Note: the Personal Edition installs by default in /usr/lib/LispWorksPersonal . Do not attempt to to install different editions in the same location, since some filenames coincide and uninstallation may break.
