---------------------------------
Summary: Configuring with $JAVA_PREFIX leads to
$JAVA_PREFIX/usr/local/lib
Key: THRIFT-4912
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4912
Project: Thrift
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Build Process
Affects Versions: 0.12.0
Reporter: Ben Pavon
While configuring thrift-0.12.0 on Red Hat Linux and targeting Java and Perl, I
used --prefix and defined $JAVA_PREFIX and $PERL_PREFIX in order to control
where Thrift is installed. Both --prefix and $PERL_PREFIX worked as intended.
However, setting $JAVA_PREFIX resulted in $JAVA_PREFIX/usr/local/lib. This is
because of the following code in the configure script:
if test "x$JAVA_PREFIX" != x; then :
JAVA_PREFIX="$JAVA_PREFIX/usr/local/lib"
elif test "x$PREFIX" != x; then :
JAVA_PREFIX="$PREFIX/usr/local/lib"
else
JAVA_PREFIX="/usr/local/lib"
fi
I believe the above code should be replaced one that sets $JAVA_PREFIX to
/usr/local/lib only if it is not defined.
