New submission from Dave Love <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I `should' (following the GNU-ish conventions) be able to configure and build with, say, the default $prefix and then just `make install prefix=...' to install under another name. (This is generally necessary if, for instance, /usr/local is a read-only mount point.) The current build system goes to some lengths to defeat this for some reason, unlike any other package I know.
Is there actually a good reason for that, or would you accept a patch to give the normal autoconf behaviour? ---------- messages: 24 nosy: droundy, fx, tommy status: unread title: Makefile conventions for prefix not honoured ____________________________________ Darcs issue tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.darcs.net/issue10> ____________________________________ _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
