Hello,
I just wanted to check to see if anyone else noticed this.
In doc/README it states this:
****
To get the defaults that Cistron Radius used up to 1.5.4.3-beta18, use:
./configure --localstatedir=/var --sysconfdir=/etc
That means binaries will get installed in /usr/local/{bin,sbin},
manpages in /usr/local/man, configuration files in /etc/raddb,
and logfiles in /var/log and /var/log/radacct.
****
If I run configure with these flags:
./configure
--with-localstatedir=/var --with-sysconfdir=/etc --with-thread-pool
--with-mysql-include-dir=/usr/include/mysql/ --with-mysql-lib-dir=/usr/lib/
--with-mysql-dir=/usr/bin/
The localstatdir and sysconfdir flags seem to get ignored. The result is this:
binaries will get installed in /usr/local/{bin,sbin}
manpages in /usr/local/man
configuration files in /usr/local/etc/raddb
logfiles in /usr/local/var/log and /usr/local/var/log/radacct
pid file in /usr/local/var/run
I then went and edited the configure script and changed them myself:
sysconfdir='${prefix}/etc' changed to sysconfdir='/etc'
localstatedir='${prefix}/var' changed to localstatedir='/var'
these changes gave the desired effect as described in doc/README
This leads me to a couple possible conclusions.
1) I am using the configure flags wrong
2) the localstatdir and sysconfdir flags are now ignored
3) I am misunderstanding something
Can someone fill me in on the real reasons why it works this way?
Thanks and have a great day!
Nick
