ID: 8957 Updated by: sniper Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Old-Status: Open Status: Closed Bug Type: *Install and Config Assigned To: Comments: Many systems have different libraries installed in different locations. So using --prefix would not be a good solution. Just create a install script in which you can use some $PREFIX variable or something like that. --prefix is usually used to indicate the prefix of the path where 'make install' should copy libs/binaries/header files. --Jani Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-01-27 17:49:01] [EMAIL PROTECTED] A suggestion: Please use --prefix when looking for things. I ran configure with many arguments like: --with-mm=/my/prefix/directory when the directory would not have been needed if either the --prefix was tried first, or if it used the CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS and LIBS to find things. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8957 -- PHP Development Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
