Software Collections for Distros

All collections on SoftwareCollections.org are using the /opt/sclo prefix (not distribution specific).

Every distribution should register their own directory in the /opt directory and use it for their specific collections. The registration can requested in the Linux Foundation BugZilla, using the LANANA product.

The prefix is defined in the scl-utils package. You can find more about scl-utils macros at Software Collections for Developers.

When building in Copr, it is easier to use a package with a redefiniton of the prefix. For more information about building in Copr, see: https://fedorahosted.org/copr/wiki/ScreenshotsTutorial.
