#3173: Install fails when using DESTDIR
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: fidori | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Build System
Version: 6.10.2 | Severity: normal
Keywords: DESTDIR | Testcase:
Os: Linux | Architecture: x86
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
The package ghc-6.10.2-i386-unknown-linux fails to install when using
`DESTDIR` with `make install`. For example, when configured with
{{{
./configure --prefix=/tmp/ghc
}}}
and installed with
{{{
make install DESTDIR=/tmp/ghc_dest
}}}
the install fails with error
{{{
ghc-pkg: /tmp/ghc_dest/tmp/ghc/lib/ghc-6.10.2/package.conf: openFile: does
not exist (No such file or directory)
}}}
The file `package.conf` is created in directory `/tmp/ghc/lib/ghc-6.10.2`
but it seems the install scripts try to find it in
`/tmp/ghc_dest/tmp/ghc/lib/ghc-6.10.2`.
