On Mandrake (grass 5.0.0 in contrib of 9.0 and 9.1, 5.0.2 in current
cooker, packages of 5.0.2 avialable for 9.1 also) we have KDE menu
inttegration, but how feasible is it to have a default location? And how
would it affect new locations? Would you suggest shipping the spearfish
data? And how about integration with other data sets (I think I have at
least 3 copies of the same data installed, some for grass, some for
flightgear, some for GMT).

Buchan
