Purely as a data point for another fairly complex setup, here's how I
configure Perl:
-Dprefix=/usr/pubsw
-Dsiteprefix=/usr/local
-Dvendorprefix=/usr/pubsw
-Dvendorlib=/usr/pubsw/lib/perl5/site_perl/%version%
-Dvendorarch=/usr/pubsw/lib/perl5/site_perl/%version%/systems/@sys
-Darchlib=/usr/pubsw/lib/perl5/%version%/systems/@sys
-Dinstallprefix=%package%/@sys
-Dinstallarchlib=%package%/@sys/lib/perl5/%version%/systems/`sys`
where %package% is replaced by /afs/.ir/pubsw/Languages/perl-5.6.1 and
%version is replaced by 5.6.1. This is for the site-wide build; for local
builds for servers, I use:
-Dprefix=/usr/local
-Dsiteprefix=/usr/local
-Dvendorprefix=/usr/pubsw
-Dvendorlib=/usr/pubsw/lib/perl5/site_perl/%version%
-Dvendorarch=/usr/pubsw/lib/perl5/site_perl/%version%/systems/@sys
-Dlocincpth="/usr/local/include /usr/pubsw/include /usr/pubsw/X/include"
-Dloclibpth="/usr/local/lib /usr/pubsw/lib /usr/pubsw/X11R6/lib"
-Dinstallprefix=%root%
-Dinstallsiteprefix=%root%
where %root% is /usr/local/stow/perl-5.6.1. This is an example of a
currently working use of the vendor paths by someone other than a vendor.
Note that Perl's installation process gets things wrong for both of these
cases in different ways; I have to run the following fixup code for the
site-wide build:
cd %package%/share/lib/perl5/%version%/systems/@sys \
&& perl -i -pe 's(%package%/\@sys)(/usr/pubsw)g' .packlist \
&& perl -i -pe 'next if !/^install|^ccd/; s(%package%/\@sys)(/usr/pubsw)' \
Config.pm
and the following fixup code for the local build:
cd %root%/lib/perl5/%version%/sun4-solaris \
&& perl -i -pe 's(%root%)(/usr/local)g' .packlist \
&& perl -i -pe 'next if !/^install|^ccd/; s(%root%)(/usr/local)' \
Config.pm
rmdir /usr/local/stow/perl-%version%/lib/perl5/site_perl/%version%/sun4-solaris
because after the initial install, I want Perl to use the real paths for
installation and not the package paths.
I then configure Perl modules for site-wide installation with:
Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site
INSTALLARCHLIB=%SITELIB%/systems/@sys
INSTALLSITEARCH=%SITELIB%/systems/@sys
INSTALLSITELIB=%SITELIB%
INSTALLHTMLSCRIPTDIR=%PREFIX%/share/nohtml
INSTALLBIN=%PREFIX%/@sys/bin
INSTALLSCRIPT=%PREFIX%/share/bin
INSTALLMAN1DIR=%PREFIX%/share/man/man1
INSTALLMAN3DIR=%PREFIX%/share/man/man3p
SITELIBEXP=%INSTALLED%
SITEARCHEXP=%INSTALLED%/systems/@sys
where %PREFIX% is /afs/.ir/pubsw/Site/siteperl-5.6.1 and %SITELIB% is
%PREFIX%/share/lib. Those directories are then linked by our packaging
tools into /usr/pubsw (such as /usr/pubsw/lib/perl5/5.6.1/site_perl).
For local modules, I use:
/usr/local/bin/perl Makefile.PL \
LIB=/usr/local/stow/siteperl-5.6.1/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1 \
INSTALLHTMLSCRIPTDIR=/usr/local/stow/siteperl-5.6.1/html \
INSTALLBIN=/usr/local/stow/siteperl-5.6.1/bin \
INSTALLSCRIPT=/usr/local/stow/siteperl-5.6.1/bin \
INSTALLMAN1DIR=/usr/local/stow/siteperl-5.6.1/man/man1 \
INSTALLMAN3DIR=/usr/local/stow/siteperl-5.6.1/man/man3
