Linux software won't install were it's told to!

[Alexander Leidinger]

Hi, 

If the installer is doing something like
cd /
ls
Check if usr exists and mkdir if it doesn't exist. 
cd usr
Check if local exists and mkdir if it doesn't exist.
cd local
... 

Then there's nothing we can do about it. This can't be disabled, it's inherent in the way the linuxulator works. 

You could check what the installer is doing with ktrace/linux_kdump or dtrace or maybe truss. 

Bye, 
Alexander.

I have tried

rm -rf /compat/linux/usr/local

then installing the program to /usr/local/quartus. It still installs to 
the /compat/linux prefix.

Cheers.
