Bruno Mahé commented on BIGTOP-695:
-----------------------------------

Thanks a lot Anatoli for this patch!
It goes along what I was thinking when this ticket was opened (sorry for not 
being more descriptive), but there are a few things that could be fixed:
* {noformat}
        --flume-dir)
 -        FLUME_DIR=$2 ; shift 2
 +        LIB_DIR=$2 ; shift 2
 {noformat}
 If you look at Apache Flume's rules or spec file, --flume-dir is never used. 
So we could remove it or better, rename it to --lib-dir for consistency
* I would rather keep the PREFIX out of the variables. This makes it easier to 
use the install script (compare the spec files of hadoop where all parameters 
look like _--doc-dir=$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{doc_hadoop}_ [in addition of already 
passing the prefix as another parameter] versus hbase where they look like 
_--doc-dir=%{doc_hbase}_).
  In order to avoid a repetition of the pattern <PREFIX>/<DIR> from within the 
script, feel free to create another set of variables or any other method of 
your choice. But the lib/man/bin/etc. directories passed to the scripts should 
not be already prefixed.
