Hi all,
I have a question about the preset output variables srcdir and top_srcdir.
According to the manual:
— Variable: srcdir
The relative name of the directory that contains the source code for that makefile.
— Variable: abs_srcdir
Absolute name of srcdir
However, if I call configure from another directory using an absolute path, both srcdir and
top_srcdir get set to an absolute path...
e.g., the source tree is in /source, inside source I create a build directory /source/build
cd /source/build
/source/build/../configure --config-options
will set both srcdir and top_srcdir to /source/build/..
