[PATCH] osd_login: fix DESTDIR install

[Mike Frysinger]

If the destination dir doesn't exist, the current install fails:
make  install-data-hook
make[4]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.6/work/nfs-utils-1.2.6/utils/osd_login'
/usr/bin/install -c --mode 755 osd_login /var/tmp/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.6/image//sbin/osd_login
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file ‘/var/tmp/portage/net-fs/nfs-utils-1.2.6/image//sbin/osd_login’: No such file or directory
make[4]: *** [install-data-hook] Error 1

Rewrite the code to use automake's existing script support rather
than trying to install the file by hand.

You misspelled "overridden."  Yes, I know you just copied this line from
mount/Makefile.am, but there is no sense compounding the error.

Also it might be worth mentioning in the comment why we have this
restriction.

This is because this script is called by Kernel and is
expected to be at /sbin/osd_login

Though there is a module param to change that.

Thanks, for the fix guys

Thanks for pointing out the misspelling in mount/Makefile.am... its
been corrected...

On second thought, You know, I'm not sure about this fix.

A lot of times we install to a side folder, so we can later
tar and package the sub-folder without actually affecting
our live system. What will happen with the packagers that
are not RPM don't they rely on this?

I would like to let the user to install nfs-utils on the
side and to not conflict with the running system. Someone
how knows what he is doing can override the Kernel path
to what he wants. Just as he will need to override the
nfs init scripts.

So I would prefer if we can just create the $(DESTDIR)/sbin/

But actually I do not understand these Makefiles. It might be
that it's what I want with the above "sbin_SCRIPTS="

I think the makefiles already create $(DESTDIR)$(sbindir).  The problem was
that you weren't using $(DESTDIR)$(sbindir), you were using
$(DESTDIR)/sbin.  The patch sets $(sbindir) to /sbin, so everything should
just work.

But I could be wrong, automake is a black box to me.

i don't think that was the issue.  the osd_login dir wasn't telling automake 
that it was installing anything (whether sbindir or /sbin or anywhere else), 
so this makefile didn't create the destdir automatically.

now that automake knows we have things to install into $sbindir (regardless of 
its value), it knows it has to create it before trying to install things.

it might have worked in the past for people because either (1) they didn't use 
DESTDIR into an empty path or (2) they weren't running in parallel so the 
other subdir (that installs `mount`) took care of implicitly creating 
$(DESTDIR)/sbin for them.

I took Neil's patch... commit d4d3920 which basically does
the same thing... (I believe)...
