Rooted build in makefile? (was RE: Packaging directories)

[Mayers, P J]

Erm... No.

I have a working 2.1 RPM spec which fits RedHat's layout, but I haven't
updated it for 3.0 (still using /usr/local for that at the moment).

It would be a *LOT* easier to package samba if the makefile supported a
rooted build like (say) cyrus:

install::
        $(srcdir)/install-sh -d ${DESTDIR}$(exec_prefix)/bin
        $(srcdir)/install-sh -d ${DESTDIR}$(exec_prefix)/lib
        $(srcdir)/install-sh -d ${DESTDIR}$(prefix)/include/cyrus

Unfortunately I know next to nothing about autoconf, so am not qualified to
do it. Or maybe it does already. If so, what's the command? I'll roll an
RPM.

Cheers,
Phil

Does anyone know how up-to-date these directories are?

For example, does the makerpms.sh build Samba RPMS cleanly for RedHat 6.1?

What about TurboLinux 6.0?
