Not quite. "scons prefix=/tmp/foo" will recompile lyx to work from /tmp/foo.
The needed functionality is to be able to compile with prefix=/usr
but to be able to install with a dest_dir that is different.
That is how the current configure-based RPM spec file works. After configuring
with prefix=/usr, we do:
make DESTDIR=${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} install
Does this make sense?
