If the SLURM RPMs are built with a non-standard value for _prefix, i.e.,
rpmbuild -ba --define="_prefix /opt/slurm" ...
the build ultimately breaks on trying to find the doc/ directory.
There's an odd construct in the %files list that presumably handles
systems that don't use the /usr/share structure. However, while it works
in the plain vanilla case, it breaks on my RHEL6 system with an
alternate _prefix location supplied. I'm using the patch below on my own
system, but presume it will be invalid on other non-Linux Unices.
Not a matter of supreme importance, but if anyone has a good idea on how
to fix this...
