Packaging of Odin and Library location

[StudebakerGuy]

I am currently workin on packaging Odin for OpenMandriva Lx. There are currently several issues with this, but the one I see as the biggest is where the compiler expects to find the various libraries.

The binary odin needs to be installed in the /usr/bin directory. However, the libraries must be placed in a different directory. Using the enviromental variable, ODIN_ROOT, option to deal with this isn't really an option either. In fact, that would be nice to leave available for the user to overide the system libaries.

My current plan is to write a patch that would allow the libary location to be specified as part of the build process. Are there any other options? Or, is this something that there is interest in being added to Odin?
