Hello,
I wasn't sure if this is the usual place to submit bugs but I didn't
found an `issues' page in the Slurm repo, so I'm going to use this via.
`config.status' doesn't handle some vars correctly. In particular, I was
building without specifying any path. This is what I get after running
`./configure` and then `head -n 32 etc/init.d.slurm`:

Then, when I run with `./configure --prefix=/usr/local
--bindir=/usr/local/bin --sbindir=/usr/local/sbin
--exec-prefix=/usr/local --libdir=/usr/local/lib
--sysconfdir=/usr/local/etc`:

Just defining `--prefix' and `--exec-prefix' has the same effect as not
defining anything at all. Basically, when it has to replace `paths vars'
to their defaults, it doesn't.
Same happens with `etc/init.d.slurmdbd' and don't if any other file, but
I suspect that they're plenty. I don't have time (neither the will and
the masochist spirit (: ) to learn `automake' so I won't fix this, but I
hope someone does.
