I'm working on a project when I have a Perl script, call it "script",
which contains some installation dependant paths.
Since I don't want to hardcode them, I created a "script.in" file, which
contains a line with:
my $system_config_file= "@SYSCONF_DIR@/script.conf";
and placed this snippet in configure.ac:
dnl $sysconfdir contains "${prefix}/etc, so I have to
dnl eval it another time
eval "eval SYSCONF_DIR=$sysconfdir"
AC_SUBST(SYSCONF_DIR)
AC_CONFIG_FILES(script)
This works mainly as expected, but in the script file I get:
my $system_config_file= "NONE/etc/pac.conf";
^^^^
What am I missing?
Another question: in the case it's possible to get this working, is it
a standard/recommended technique (I see examples using simply sed
translations in the Makefile to achieve the same effect)?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
