Comment 1 William Cohen 2006-07-08 19:15:09 UTC 
Looked up information about FHS at http://www.pathname.com/fhs/
and found that the stuff in /usr/share should be machine independent.

Modified the libpfm.spec file to not install the example files in /usr/share.
libpfm-devel-3.2-0.060621.8 has the fix.
