Hi

I was installing Postfix postfix-2.5.5 on Solaris. At the time of compiling the Source with make I have defined the parameters (for changing the default values of the following from /etc/ to /opt etc.)
-DDEF_COMMAND_DIR=
-DDEF_SAMPLE_DIR=
-DDEF_SENDMAIL_PATH=
-DDEF_CONFIG_DIR=
-DDEF_DAEMON_DIR=
-DDEF_DATA_DIR=
-DDEF_QUEUE_DIR
-DDEF_MAILQ_PATH=
-DDEF_MANPAGE_DIR=
-DDEF_NEWALIAS_PATH=


When I run make install, it asked a load of questions again about where I want the stuff located. One of the things it asks about is config files, which defaults to /etc/postfix and I change it to /opt/postfix/etc

It then carries on with similar questions before copying a load of files into their location.

Then it stops saying


postfix: fatal: /etc/postfix/postfix-script: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install'

Which looks like it's still expecting the config files to be in their default location, rather than the one I entered. It's actually put the files in the custom location, but then looks for them in the default place!

I have rerun it after creating a link to /etc/postfix/main.cf to /opt/postfix/etc/main.cf then it doesn't throw that error, it stumbles over another config file with exactly the same error instead! But this not i am expecting to end up with creating the links.

Is this a bug or have I overlooked something?


Thanks

N
