Please correct me if I am wrong: doesn't your approach require that $pkgdatadir is properly defined at compile time, though it is normally required by make only at install time? So if one first compiles BBDB, and then installs BBDB using something like $ make install pkgdatadir=/foo/bbdb this would still fail? Would it be possible that `make install' creates an extra file bbdb-print-tex-path.el in the directory where `make install' puts the elisp files, using something like $ echo \"${pkgdatadir}\" > /path_where_elisp_files_get_installed/bbdb-print-tex-path.el Then bbdb-site.el could check whether it finds this file bbdb-print-tex-path.el in the bbdb elisp directory and, if yes, read the string in that file to initialize bbdb-print-tex-path. Or, if it does not find that file, use some default like the current /usr/local/share/bbdb. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.
