Summary: Review Request: adplug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=177818 ------- Additional Comments From triad@xxxxxxxxx 2006-02-25 17:08 EST ------- Updtream have agreed to change the path, but has this strange phenomenon with autoconf, any ideas to help them understand what autoconf seem to want to do? ---------------------------------- Date: 2006-02-18 00:29 Sender: dynamiteProject Admin Logged In: YES user_id=31101 I agree with you and like to correct it, although the following is strange: Autoconf has a set of variables to refer to default installation directories, which i've been using. In order to correct this bug, i changed the default lookup path for the adplug.db file from $(datadir)/adplug, which resolves to /usr/local/share/adplug, to $(sharedstatedir)/adplug, of which the Autoconf docs say for $(sharedstatedir) that it is "The directory for installing modifiable architecture-independent data", so exactly what i'm looking for. This variable resolves to /usr/local/com, which is a path i never heard of and didn't exist in my system before. Question is now if i should just set it to $(sharedstatedir) and let the distribution maintainers (i.e. you) re-configure the right path for their installation at build time. According to the Autoconf docs, this is the right way to go. I really wonder though what this /com directory is. I don't see anything useful on google.
