Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Federico Ferri (federico__) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: fix DESTDIR support in makefile.in
Initial Comment: support for staged installs (i.e. using $(DESTDIR) variable in Makefile) is broken.
what I mean is that some items are installed into $(DESTDIR), while some other are installed to /
perhaps, some time ago the Makefile used to support staged installs, but then someone forgot to add $(DESTDIR) to new install items?
staged installs are very important, read here why: http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/DESTDIR.html
(for example it breaks the installation of Gentoo - luckily I already patch pd into the ebuild)
