Thanks, Zbyszek. --prefix etc. I assume you mean: --prefix /etc and not prefix /etc is it so ?

No, I meant --prefix as in the command line option to ./configure, e.g. --prefix=/usr, and etc as in et cetera, not the directory. Something like ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var. Generally, it is best to use the same flags that you distribution uses. Then you'll overwrite existing files instead writing them to a different directory and potentially causing confusion.

Hi all, Thanks for the quick response from all responders; I was afraid that etc here was indeed in a different context than a path regards, KW On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 4:08 PM, Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek zbys...@in.waw.pl wrote: On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 04:02:37PM +0200, Kevin Wilson wrote: Thanks, Zbyszek. --prefix etc. I assume you mean: --prefix /etc and not prefix /etc is it so ?

[systemd-devel] Building systemd from git
Hello, When I build systemd from git using the usual procedure of configure, without setting special parameters, it installs folder under /usr/etc/systemd/ (like /usr/etc/systemd/system and its children, /usr/etc/systemd/network/, and more). Is there a way to run configure so that, instead of /usr/etc/systemd/, it will use /etc/systemd/ ? In Fedora, for example, the rpm uses the /etc/systemd and not /usr/etc/systemd/, which does not exist.

In Fedora, for example, the rpm uses the /etc/systemd and not /usr/etc/systemd/, which does not exist. This works like for any other autoconf/automake package. If you want to override the GNU defaults use --sysconfdir= for example. If you are a developer, and now what you do the best way to build and install systemd is via ./autogen.sh c make -j8 sudo make install. However, do understand that this voids your warranty because it will install systemd into /usr which is package manager territory.
