Hello all!
I've tried to install prt-get into a non-standard location (like /packages/prt-get). For this I've used ./configure --prefix=/packages/prt-get. Unfortunately make doesn't take these into account.. This is strange... Any ideas?
Strange indeed, as it's taken into account here: binaries and man pages are put into the 'prefix' location here. Could you post a log file of the failure? prt-get.conf is always going to /etc, no matter what you use as prefix... there was a good reason to force it that way, which I unfortunately don't remember. If you want /etc and /var to be prefix relative, comment out lines 33 and 34 in configure.in. Yet, this only affects files below /etc and /var and should not cause make(1) to completely ignore "--prefix".
