[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/3] package/bash: use --bindir instead of exec_prefix=

[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Thomas, All,

On 2021-04-23 22:23 +0200, Thomas Petazzoni spake thusly:
> We want bash to be installed as /bin/bash. For ages, Buildroot has
> been doing this by overriding exec_prefix at install time. First of
> all, it would be preferred to do this at configure time. But also,
> overriding exec_prefix not only changes where "bash" goes, but also
> where the pkgconfig file goes. Due to this, bash.pc goes into
> /lib/pkgconfig/, and doesn't get removed by target-finalize.
> 
> Since all we want is to have 'bash' as /bin/bash, simply pass
> --bindir=/bin at configure time. This allows to use the default target
> installation logic for autotools-package. We keep a post-install
> target hook to remove /bin/bashbug.
