---------------------------------
Summary: installing into custom location doesn't work nicely (and
is not properly documented)
Key: PROTON-342
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-342
Project: Qpid Proton
Issue Type: Bug
Components: proton-c
Affects Versions: 0.4
Reporter: Gordon Sim
Assignee: Darryl L. Pierce
Fix For: 0.5
The README suggests setting -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when running cmake, it does
not mention setting DESTDIR when invoking make install.
If you don't set the DESTDIR on make install it will honour the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX for some parts of the installation (e.g. header files,
native libraries, pkg-config file etc) but the python bindings (and I assume
other bindings) will still install in the standard location which will fail if
you are not running as root.
However if you set DESTDIR then this alters the location of the headers,
libraries and pkg-config , which now install into
$DESTDIR/$CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and the pkg-config file no longer has the
correct include or library paths in it.
