I'm just rebuilding my RPM with the ./buildconf and but it fail,

Fine for me, even if layout still didn't works having it in configure
is suffisant, but before my patch to Makefile.in, errordir wasn't handle.
My Redhat layout is :
/etc/httdp2/conf/
/etc/httdp2/build/ (needed ?)
/usr/bin/ (ie htpasswd)
/usr/sbin/ (httpd2, apachectl2)
/usr/lib/apache2/ (modules)
/usr/share/man/man1,8 (man pages)
/var/www2/cgi-bin/
/var/www2/error/
/var/www2/icons/
/var/www2/html/ (html)
/usr/lib/libapr*
/usr/include/apache2/
/var/log/http2/ (error, access)
/var/run/httpd2.pid
What should I use in configure ?
I'd like also :)
/usr/include/apr/
/usr/include/expat/expat.h
