I found a small glitch in 3.2b1; the /opt/www default prefix is still
used in a few places, even though I used --prefix. My full configure
invocation was:
./configure --prefix=/www/misc/htdig
--with-cgi-bin-dir=/www/cgi-bin
--with-image-dir=/www/misc/htdig/html
--with-search-dir=/www/misc/htdig/html
"make install" failed with:
Installing default configuration files...
o/bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs /opt/www/conf
mkdir /opt/www
mkdir: Failed to make directory "/opt/www"; Permission denied
mkdir /opt/www/conf
mkdir: Failed to make directory "/opt/www/conf"; No such file or directory
configure.in contains this code to set the configuration directory:
AC_ARG_WITH(config-dir, [ --with-config-dir=DIR where your config directory is
[default=$ac_default_prefix/conf]],
CONFIG_DIR="$withval", CONFIG_DIR="$ac_default_prefix/conf")
AC_SUBST(CONFIG_DIR)
I suspect $ac_default_prefix is the wrong variable to use, though I'm
not sure what the correct one is. I hacked it for now by replacing
all occurrences of $ac_default_prefix in configure.in to $prefix, and
running autoconf to generate a new configure script.
