Same here. But the scrollkeeper directory is detected by using 'scrollkeeper-config --pkglocalstatedir'. That should output '/var/lib/scrollkeeper'. The following command finds all files containing something with "localstate", which are not created by the autotools: $ grep -ri localstate gnome-doc-utils-0.4.4 | \ grep -vE '^gnome-doc-utils-0\.4\.4/([^/:]+/)*Makefile\.in:' | \ grep -v '^gnome-doc-utils-0\.4\.4/configure:' | \ cut -d : -f 1 | \ uniq gnome-doc-utils-0.4.4/ChangeLog gnome-doc-utils-0.4.4/gnome-doc-utils.make Now let's have a closer look at gnome-doc-utils.make: $ grep -in localstate gnome-doc-utils-0.4.4/gnome-doc-utils.make 132:_sklocalstatedir ?= `scrollkeeper-config --pkglocalstatedir` 696: echo "scrollkeeper-update -p $(DESTDIR)$(_sklocalstatedir) -o $(DESTDIR)$(OMF_DIR)/$(DOC_MODULE)"; \ 697: scrollkeeper-update -p "$(DESTDIR)$(_sklocalstatedir)" -o "$(DESTDIR)$(OMF_DIR)/$(DOC_MODULE)"; \ 727: echo "scrollkeeper-uninstall -p $(_sklocalstatedir) $(DESTDIR)$(OMF_DIR)/$(DOC_MODULE)/$$omf"; \ 728: scrollkeeper-uninstall -p "$(_sklocalstatedir)" "$(DESTDIR)$(OMF_DIR)/$(DOC_MODULE)/$$omf"; \ Still looks to me like the switch could be dropped. -- Nico
