In the Makefile, shouldn't they be a:
AJAX_FIXED_ROOT directive?
I am not exactly familiar with the Debian package process, but at my
(manually built) leftovers from the sources, I did a:
geor...@slartibartfast# fgrep -i root config.log
...
AJAX_FIXED_ROOT='\"/site/sources/EMBOSS-6.0.1/emboss\"'
datadir='${datarootdir}'
datarootdir='${prefix}/share'
docdir='${datarootdir}/doc/${PACKAGE}'
infodir='${datarootdir}/info'
localedir='${datarootdir}/locale'
mandir='${datarootdir}/man'
......
and the location was passed by configure with the --prefix switch. Does
the Debian package dist specify a location that way?

Dear EMBOSS developers,
I realised some time ago that when using the Debian 'emboss' package,
embossversion would report wrong RootDirectory and BaseDirectory because the
binaries are built in a temporary location before being moved in the package
and installed on downstream computers:
aqwa『~』$ embossversion -full
Writes the current EMBOSS version number to a file
PackageName: EMBOSS
LibraryVersion: 6.0.1
InstallDirectory: /usr
RootDirectory: /tmp/buildd/emboss-6.0.1/emboss
BaseDirectory: /tmp/buildd/emboss-6.0.1/
Using 'strace' and 'strings', I figured out that this information is hard-coded
in libajax. Is there a way to indicate the final location (/usr/share/EMBOSS?)
at build time?
Have a nice day,
