This is the case with any PREFIX not just /usr; It might use more resources for /usr, but it can hang regardless of PREFIX, the problem is related to it scanning the contents of the prefix, which is whyit might use more resources for /usr vs /usr/local.

Maybe there should be a full list of dependencies listed...

Problems with instalation and running

I spend about an hour trying to fix this problem. It is very simple.

If you get the following message from console while yoou try to run xmms2:

xmms2: error while loading shared libraries: libxmmsclient.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

you should specify LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to the xmms libraries.

1. example for installed xmms on /usr/local/xmms

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/xmms/lib

You may need to use 'set' instead of 'export'.
