Description:
I installed mysql-administrator on /usr/local, but it tries to access files on /opt/mysql-administrator.

How to repeat:
When I try to start it I get this message

[user:/usr/local/mysql-administrator/bin]$ ./mysql-administrator

(mysql-administrator:2078): libglade-WARNING **: could not find glade file '/opt/mysql-administrator/share/mysql-gui/common/connect_dialog.glade'

** (mysql-administrator:2078): WARNING **: could not load glade xml file '/opt/mysql-administrator/share/mysql-gui/common/connect_dialog.glade'

I solved it creating a soft link on /opt/mysql-administrator

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.mysql.com/documentation/ and the instructions on
how to report a bug at http://bugs.mysql.com/how-to-report.php

Additional info:

As per the FAQ, you must install this binary release of Administrator in /opt,
since it was built with configure --prefix=/opt/mysql-adminitrator.
Later distribution specific binary releases will be properly placed in /usr

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been committed to our
source repository of that product and will be incorporated into the
next release.

If necessary, you can access the source repository and build the latest
available version, including the bugfix, yourself. More information 
about accessing the source trees is available at
    http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Installing_source_tree.html

Additional info:

Changed in bk repository to use relative paths and shell script trickery ala mozilla
