[lug] Library locations

[Jeffrey Haemer]

I'm building a package: my company's commercial product, so it's our code,
not something off the web.

It includes a shared library, which I eventually need to install on target
machines.  Off-hand, I'd have guessed it should go into /usr/local/lib, or
maybe /usr/share/lib.  Still, every rpm or Debian package installed on the
boxes I have at hand installs libraries right into /usr/lib, which makes me
suspect I'm probably wrong.

Can someone explain where I should install my library and why?  I seem to be
thinking about it fuzzily.
