$prefix and $DESTDIR should not be mixed. $prefix gets compiled into binaries and you don't want to accidently have $DESTDIR in there as well. Also I find it very annoying if packages use $DESTDIR differently than automake. The additional define of $libdir is useful for biarch platforms like x86_64 as libraries have to be installed into /lib64 instead of /lib there. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Development V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@linuxtv.org http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
