Version 0.99.1-3 of openbox installs to /usr/X11R6 (as many users requested) rather than /usr as used in previous versions of openbox. Thus, the files you are looking for are in /usr/X11R6/share... This is the sort of thing that made me hesitant in changing the prefix from /usr to /usr/X11R6. (Though Chuck had some excellent points that I don't think can be addressed in any other way.) So, the question is, does openbox work as expected with the 0.99.1-3 package? Or, is openbox trying to find its files in /usr/share still?
