Hi,
I am trying to configure squid 2.6 on my server with the following
configure options:
[root@lxb] ./configure
Good so far, but...
--prefix=%(prefix)s
That's a problem. "%(prefix)s" is not a valid path. It looks like a
variable that would normally be replaced in a build script.
Only if it contains a $ though. Weird that it would have % there.
Perhapse it as cut-n-pasted from an example crafted to catch people
out in just this way. Or maybe just a lucky typo.
For what it's worth, SPEC files for building RPMs use % as the variable
identifier. Here's a snippet from a 2.6 STABLE9 SPEC file:
%configure \
--exec_prefix=/usr \
--bindir=%{_sbindir} \
--libexecdir=%{_libdir}/squid \
