These locations should only be used for .RPM package (even though this 
RPM would not be a part of the distro.

Locally compiled stuff should always default to /usr/local/share and 
/usr/local/lib respectively.

BTW, even the RPM should install to /usr/local/* (by FHS), as it is not 
a vendor supplied package (but it is too common to install just to /usr).
