Please contact us if you can help us > out with this. I'm working on Planet CCRMA (Fedora) packages based on Jarod Wilson's spec file. There is something missing from rc1 which is a way to easily install in a destination directory that is not PREFIX. The package build environment does not have write access to, say, /usr, and installs in a "buildroot", for example /var/tmp/faado/ (and inside that you have usr/, etc, etc). Usually programs include something like DESTDIR= to set that directory so that the install can be "redirected" without compromising all the internal paths and references which should still point to PREFIX. -- Fernando > > Release and download information: > http://www.ffado.org/?q=release/rc1 > > Currently, the installation options are: > * manual build from source > [http://www.ffado.org/?q=release/rc1] > * semi-automatic build from source into a 'sandbox' > [http://subversion.ffado.org/wiki/SandboxInstalls] > * APT repository for Ubuntu Gutsy and Hardy (possibly others) > [http://www.ffado.org/?q=release/apt] > > Please test and report issues at our TRAC at http://subversion.ffado.org/ > or at the mailing list (ffado-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx).
