From bug-request at octave dot org Wed Mar 29 01:10:30 2006 Subject: Question on octave-forge From: "Jurzitza, Dieter" To: Date: Wed, 29 Mar 2006 09:08:28 +0200 Dear listmembers, I am currently trying to make octave-forge understand that make install should end up somewhere in a temporary rpm-path; i.e. after having called ./configure --prefix=XXXXX make install should install to ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT}/XXXXX rather than /XXXXX where my ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} resides. As a first attempt I modified Makeconf.in; putting ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} in front of everything: MPATH = ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} at mpath@ OPATH = ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} at opath@ XPATH = ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} at xpath@ ALTMPATH = ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} at altmpath@ ALTOPATH = ${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} at altopath@ This works except for mex. Mex is using (correctly) DESTDIR as path offset for the installer. However, setting OPATH as shown above and setting DESTDIR accordingly ends in a mess because ${DESTDIR}/${RPM_BUILD_ROOT} is not the offset I'd like to see. The version of octave-forge I am using is called octave-forge-2006.03.17.tar.bz2. Many thanks in advance, take care Dieter Jurzitza -- ________________________________________________ HARMAN BECKER AUTOMOTIVE SYSTEMS Dr.-Ing.
