Hi,
no I am not a .deb or .rpm fgfs mantainer.

making deb or rpm to co-exist is not easy, you better do it with some
.tar.gz

well, I have no experience with brlcad but Curtis suggestion is right.
when you ./configure it you need to do something like :
./configure --prefix=/folder/I/want
than make
when you "make install" it, it will be placed in /folder/I/want

then you can zip it or build you deb package that will install brlcad
under that folder.

Cheers
Francesco
