Great!

You can also tell configure to place the binaries elsewhere (/usr/games
for instance, as Debian policy requests it). Have a look at debian/rules
for a list of options I've used, that could be handy.

So, we have RPMs, great! But will they work with every RPM based distro?
Or will we have to make RPMS for Redhat, Mandrake, SuSe, ... as I've
already seen?
