To: linux-lvm
tried beta4 since the LVM_DIR_PREFIX replacement may have been
fixed.
./configure --prefix=/opt/lvm/0.9.1
leaves only the man pages in the prefix dir, exec's still go
to /sbin. this is bad news since it will blow off the entire
LVM installation the next time i test an install.
checking ./configure --help:
<snip>
Directory and file names:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in
PREFIX
[/usr]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in
EPREFIX
[same as prefix]
--bindir=DIR user executables in DIR [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables in DIR [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables in DIR [EPREFIX/libexec]
--datadir=DIR read-only architecture-independent data in DIR
[PREFIX/share]
--sysconfdir=DIR read-only single-machine data in DIR
[PREFIX/etc]
--sharedstatedir=DIR modifiable architecture-independent data in
DIR
[PREFIX/com]
--localstatedir=DIR modifiable single-machine data in DIR
[PREFIX/var]
--libdir=DIR object code libraries in DIR [EPREFIX/lib]
--includedir=DIR C header files in DIR [PREFIX/include]
--oldincludedir=DIR C header files for non-gcc in DIR
[/usr/include]
--infodir=DIR info documentation in DIR [PREFIX/info]
--mandir=DIR man documentation in DIR [PREFIX/man]
--srcdir=DIR find the sources in DIR [configure dir or ..]
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM
run sed PROGRAM on installed program names
<snip>
so, prefix should set eprefix & friends which should leave the
binaries in /opt/lvm/0.9.1/sbin, etc.
any chance this could be fixed for the next beta?
and/or was the LVM_DIR_PREFIX vs. hard-coded "/dev" entrys fixed
in this one?
thanx.
