[ltp] Installing rpms in alternate directories

[James McKenzie]

Satish and Eben:

I really broke it today, but a quick 'fix' has restored gnome.  I think 
there should be an easier way to move library files from one directory 
to another.  BTW, this is what I did under RH 9 and just changed 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to reflect the new directory.  As I stated, has anyone 
done this under FC2?  I will also post this on the fedora mailing list.
