Hi I was thinking a way of changing --prefix= used in configure. I think it's desirable to have a chance to change this to another directory, specially in BSD where a lot of userland applications should not be replaced with packages.
pkgsrc does that by installing on /usr/pkg its bin, doc, lib, etc ... We could add to makepkg.conf the option PREFIX so we can use later $PREFIX in PKGBUILD. For Archlinux we could specify /usr by default and use /usr/pac for others, or whatever the user needs to. This wouldn't affect ABS behaviour in Archlinux IMHO What do you think guys? :) Regards, Antonio Huete
