Re: dpkg-buildpackage problem



I after some thinking and tweaking I finally came up with this
./configure --host=$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) --build=$(DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE)
	--prefix=/ --mandir=\$${prefix}usr/share/man --i
	nfodir=\$${prefix}usr/share/info --datadir=\$${prefix}etc/X11
	--exec-prefix=\$${prefix}/usr

My problem was that I needed to install the binary to /usr/bin and the
data to /etc/X11.  I couldn't do this with prefix set to /usr.  So I set
the prefix to / and set the --datadir and --exec-prefix to what I
needed.

Everything worked great after that.
Thanks for all your help.  I now have a much better understanding of how
this all works, that I wouldn't have if everything just worked out of
the box.
