Hi,

I think, --run-from-build-dir is not used much (anybody?).
So, while it fixes the path to nm-dhcp-helper, there might be other
bugs with it, which nobody noticed, because usually we don't run NM
that way.

So, if you want to avoid such issues, don't run NM from the build-tree,
but install it in your own --prefix.

(on Fedora/RHEL, you can also build a RPM package with
`./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -g`).


best,
Thomas
