Yes, that works a lot better. I started using --prefix=%i after seeing it other .info files.

Maybe we should do a global search and replace on this on all .info files. That would be pretty easy to do with a grep to find the .info files and sed to replace the lines.

What do people think?


I think that there may be pacakges which do not accept --root=%d and so need --prefix=%i instead, just like there are packages which do not like 'make install DESTDIR=%d' and require 'make install prefix=%i'. If you make these changes to packages, you must test they actually work afterwards before committing. This is not a good candidate for a global grep, replace and commit, it needs attention to each package.

Yes, I'll check that by comparing the build before and after and the resulting dpkg -L's.
