Comment(by nbruin):

 Replying to [comment:6 fbissey]:
 > So do we have to do two things here? Reworking spkg-install

 Yes, that '''and''' patch ECL.

 > and the relocation script

 No changes to relocation script required. The patch to ECL means that the
 default values for the {{{*ecl-...-library*}}} variables are derived from
 a quantity that is already aware of ECL's runtime location.

 So both changes are necessary and both are to the ecl spkg and both take
 effect at ECL build-time (well, the patch of course also changes ECL's
 runtime behaviour. Since a large part of building ECL consists of ECL
 compiling itself, the two overlap)

 (the comment about avoiding patching ECL is just recording possible
 avenues someone might pursue if they feel really reluctant to patch ECL)
