Thanks, substitute* is much neater and changing configure directly is working. I've just discovered though that the build includes makefile templates from the input postgres package, eg ...-postgresql-10.1/lib/pgxs/src/makefiles/pgxs.mk and parents. These makefiles are created from a separate run of `pg_config --sharedir` when building postgresql. I wonder whether it would be simpler to mock the "pg_config" program to return the paths I want, rather than patch out all the calls to it. Is that possible to do for a package and its inputs? What do you think? Regards, Ben
