Follow-up Comment #2, bug #12728 (project wesnoth):

wesnoth 1.5.6-1 and 1.5.6-2 are the 2 version of the same package, packaged
by me. They only differ for adding md5sum of some files (someting used only
by packageing scripts); the compiled code is the same and the compile
commands are the same.

Normaly I install the wesnoth data under /usr/share/wesnoth-devel, I
accomplish this with the --with-datadir-name=wesnoth-devel configure option;
but now it no longer work.

To be more accurate: my distribution's  package build system normaly compile
the source in some place (for example
/home/valdar/projects/archlinux/packages/unsupported/games/wesnoth-devel/src)
and create there a fake install dir
(/home/valdar/projects/archlinux/packages/unsupported/games/wesnoth-devel/pkg/).
After the installation process what is under pkg/ must mirror the structure
where you want to install the files so:

-with: ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-datadir-name=wesnoth-devel 
I set the name of the data dir

-with:  make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install 
I tell autotools that i want the files installed under this fake dir.

Normally this way of doing things works and autotools understand that I want
the files installed in $startdir/pkg/usr but I want the data dir to be set to
/usr/share/wesnoth-devel. Now, for some reasons this is set to
/home/valdar/projects/archlinux/packages/unsupported/games/wesnoth-devel/pkg/usr/share/wesnoth-devel
and obviusly when i delete te packaging garbage the installed program stop
working!

So for pointing out: no svn wesnoth compiled, only source code from 1.5.6
release tarball.
