Matthias Vallentin commented on BIT-1166:
-----------------------------------------

A student attempting to build Bro sent me this bug report. I asked for details 
on how to reproduce, but the problem apparently no longer occurs. Presumably 
this had to do with some submodule initialization problem. Closing it for now.

> installation does not take place in given prefix entirely

> When configuring Bro to remain in a given prefix, say {{/opt/bro}}, the 
> installation of BroControl still attempts to create a spool directory outside 
> of the prefix:
> {code}
> ./configure --prefix=/opt/bro
> make
> make install
> [...]
> CMake Error at aux/broctl/cmake_install.cmake:200 (FILE):
>   file cannot create directory: /var/opt/bro/spool.  Maybe need
>   administrative privileges.
> {code}
