You are not supposed to edit Makefile.in. > ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/usr/lib --with-module-dir=/usr/lib/pulse/modules --enable-alsa Using /usr as prefix is not recommended, because it conflicts with your distribution's package management. I personally usually don't run configure directly, but let bootstrap.sh run it for me (I run bootstrap.sh without parameters; it would be possible to give configuration parameters to bootstrap.sh too). bootstrap.sh sets up some configure parameters, and according to config.log, the resulting command line looks like this: $ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --enable-force-preopen CFLAGS="-g -O0" --no-create --no-recursion I install to the default location (under /usr/local). Others have different conventions, for example, installing under the home directory, or not installing at all and running from the build tree. -- Tanu --------------------------------------------------------------------- Intel Finland Oy Registered Address: PL 281, 00181 Helsinki Business Identity Code: 0357606 - 4 Domiciled in Helsinki This e-mail and any attachments may contain confidential material for the sole use of the intended recipient(s).
