Configure seems to cache the prefix value. When you rerun
configure.gnu, --prefix= doesn't seem to change anything. I meant to
check whether -Dprefix= (the real option used in Configure) would
help, but perl's ugliness stopped me considerably.

Maybe something has changed for the better? I ran pearl, readline, zlib and autoconf over again and seem to have been OK (see my [SOLVED] post). Do you want me to examine any of the logs/guess or what before I remove the dirs?

How about some kind of test to ensure that autoconf is really OK now? I just saw now "Error" entries in the log and saw install looked OK.


So, if you'd like to run Configure to get your defaults laid out, I
think you'd want to remove the directory after that saving Policy.sh,
which has the settings you made. Or something like that. Or running
Configure directly with:

sh Configure -des -Dprefix=/usr ...

That's essentially what configure.gnu is doing. -Dprefix might not
have any effect though if prefix already is set to /usr/local.

What can I look for to see if I need to do this? I can upload files from that machine to this over my network (I *think* - haven't tried that yet) and post.
