This is so basic but... How to I get CP not to omit files/folders?

This is so basic but... How to I get CP not to omit files/folders?

Ok, so for the past few weeks I've been trying to install Trine. I think I've almost got everything right, except the libraries that came with it need to be somewhere where the game can find them.

I'm running Fedora 15 KDE and all I want to do is copy my files from /usr/games/trine/lib64 to /usr/lib or /usr/lib64

and so I type
Code:

root$ cp /usr/local/games/trine/lib64/ /usr/lib
and the little thorn basically says "I'd prefer not to."
Code:

cp: omitting directory '/usr/local/games/trine/lib64'
What gives? I'm doing this as root so it shouldn't be a permissions problem.

Thank you in advance for any help. If I can get Trine to work on this partition, the last remaining reason I have to rarely boot into my windows partition is gone. Help me complete the conversion guys!
