program's don't go into a fixed location. they can go anywhere. portage normally installs them into /var/tmp/portage, then merges them into /
they're normally in /bin,/sbin,/usr/bin,/usr/sbin though

well, I just wondered why you asked this question as it's relatively easy to figure out if you use a terminal

| Code: | edwin@edder:~$ whereis AbiWord-2.2
AbiWord-2: /usr/bin/AbiWord-2.2 /usr/lib/AbiWord-2.2 |
Will show where all files are installed. The ones in the bin dirs are the executables:
| Code: | edwin@edder:~$ qpkg -l abiword | grep bin
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/ttfadmin.sh
/usr/bin/ttftool
/usr/bin/AbiWord-2.2
/usr/bin/abiword-2.2 -> AbiWord-2.2 1106606344 |
