For entrance, autogen.sh is failing to fill in the PACKAGE_CFG_DIR
properly. That is, after executing "./autogen.sh --prefix=/opt/e17"
the variable definition has not been substituted correctly:
$ grep PACKAGE_CFG_DIR src/config.h
#define PACKAGE_CFG_DIR "${prefix}/etc"
Note that entrance will still work but will not find a configuration
DB. Entrance will also handily create a ~/${prefix} hierarchy owned by
root.
I found a fix for this by patching configure.in and passed it by Tilman:
he doesn't see this issue on his distro without my patch so I am not
sure what is up. I've attached the patch in the off chance there are
developers who are encountering the problem but it is clear this is not
a pure fix.
Some particulars:
$ uname -rmpio
2.6.19-gentoo-r5 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ AuthenticAMD
GNU/Linux
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61
automake (GNU automake) 1.9.6
Suggestions welcome.
