Ahhh. That would have the undesired effect of relocating my infiniband-diags wherever I specify --prefix. This is not quite what I want. The ugly details are about to come out. The problem is that I am not setting a --prefix when I build any of the prerequisite packages (i.e. opensm, the libraries it depends on, etc.) as I want everything to actually have a /usr prefix, however for the purposes of building this stack from the downloadable package of what's basically SRPMs, I install the prerequisites into a temporary path. So I have a dir "./tree/" in which I use rpm2cpio < $rpm | cpio -id to roll the packages into and then point the various configure scripts to using various --with-* options. This method has worked so far for: SRPMS/libibcommon-1.0.8-1.ofed1.3 SRPMS/libibumad-1.1.7-1.ofed1.3 SRPMS/opensm-3.1.10-1.ofed1.3 SRPMS/ibutils-1.2-1.ofed1.3 SRPMS/libibmad-1.1.6-1.ofed1.3 The overall problem is that I cannot taint my pristine build environment by going along the normal process of "build rpm, install it, build next rpm, install it, etc.", so I have to install prerequisite RPMs into a sandbox and point subsequent users (in the build process) of it into the sandbox. b.
