Therefore, running `./configure' alone will lead to things being installed under `/usr/local' (i.e., executables in `/usr/local/bin', libs in `/usr/local/lib', etc.). OTOH, `./configure --prefix=/usr/bin' will finally install things under `/usr/bin'---that is, executables in `/usr/bin/bin', libs in `/usr/bin/lib', etc. This is certainly not what you want. Instead, if you want things installed under `/usr/bin', what you want is `./configure --prefix=/usr'. It should work fine. (Note: you may need to run `make clean' before running `configure' with a different `--prefix'.) Hope this helps, Ludovic. _______________________________________________ Bug-guile mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-guile
