You should try DOCDIR instead of DESTDIR. It will create all the structure, see this: $ rm -rf /tmp/devbox $ mkdir /tmp/devbox $ env DESTDIR=/tmp/devbox/doc/doc make ENGLISH_ONLY=yes WEB_ONLY=yes all install $ tree -d /tmp/devbox /tmp/devbox ├── articles │ ├── building-products │ ├── gjournal-desktop │ ├── releng │ ├── vinum │ └── vm-design ├── books │ ├── design-44bsd │ ├── dev-model │ ├── developers-handbook │ │ └── sockets │ └── handbook │ ├── advanced-networking │ ├── basics │ ├── bsdinstall │ ├── geom │ ├── mail │ ├── security │ └── virtualization └── doc └── doc └── imagelib └── callouts 23 directories $ rm -rf /tmp/devbox $ mkdir /tmp/devbox $ env DOCDIR=/tmp/devbox/doc/doc make ENGLISH_ONLY=yes WEB_ONLY=yes all install $ tree -d /tmp/devbox /tmp/devbox └── doc └── doc ├── en -> en_US.ISO8859-1 ├── en_US.ISO8859-1 │ ├── articles │ │ ├── bsdl-gpl │ │ ├── building-products │ │ ├── committers-guide │ │ │ └── imagelib │ │ │ └── callouts │ │ ├── contributing │ │ ├── contributors │ │ ├── cups │ │ ├── explaining-bsd │ │ ├── filtering-bridges │ │ ├── fonts │ │ ├── freebsd-questions │ │ ├── freebsd-releng │ │ ├── freebsd-update-server │ │ │ └── imagelib │ │ │ └── callouts │ │ ├── geom-class │ │ ├── gjournal-desktop │ │ ├── hubs │ │ ├── ipsec-must │ │ ├── ldap-auth │ │ ├── leap-seconds │ │ ├── linux-emulation │ │ ├── linux-users │ │ ├── mailing-list-faq │ │ ├── nanobsd │ │ │ └── imagelib │ │ │ └── callouts │ │ ├── new-users │ │ ├── pam │ │ ├── pgpkeys │ │ ├── port-mentor-guidelines │ │ ├── pr-guidelines │ │ ├── problem-reports │ │ ├── rc-scripting │ │ │ └── imagelib │ │ │ └── callouts │ │ ├── releng │ │ ├── remote-install │ │ │ └── imagelib │ │ │ └── callouts │ │ ├── serial-uart │ │ ├── solid-state │ │ ├── vinum │ │ └── vm-design │ └── books │ ├── arch-handbook │ │ └── imagelib │ │ └── callouts │ ├── design-44bsd │ ├── dev-model │ ├── developers-handbook │ │ └── sockets │ ├── faq │ ├── fdp-primer │ │ └── imagelib │ │ └── callouts │ ├── handbook │ │ ├── advanced-networking │ │ ├── basics │ │ ├── bsdinstall │ │ ├── geom │ │ ├── imagelib │ │ │ └── callouts │ │ ├── mail │ │ ├── security │ │ └── virtualization │ ├── pmake │ └── porters-handbook │ └── imagelib │ └── callouts ├── faq -> en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq └── handbook -> en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook 78 directories Regards -- Danilo G.

Is there some way to avoid this? anyone? This is particularly annoying when testing subsets of documentation. Is there any variable to set that will work similarly to MAKEOBJIRPREFIX from src? I'd like to run "make install" from a doc directory and have it install to the "expected" place so that browsing documentation from the webserver still works. -- Eitan Adler ___ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
why does "make install" write to files outside of DESTDIR ?
Steps to reproduce: rm -rf /srv/www/devbox/ mkdir /srv/www/devbox/ env DESTDIR=/srv/www/devbox/docs/docs make -s all install Expected behavior: no files are written to outside of /srv/www/devbox/docs/docs Actual behavior: /srv/www/devbox/articles and /srv/www/devbox/books exist Why is this? Is there some way to avoid this? -- Eitan Adler ___ freebsd-doc@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-doc-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
