build system hardcodes /usr as installation path
Be-ing opened this issue · comments
There does not seem to be any way to specify where to install the build.
Fixed in my fork: https://github.com/Be-ing/vital/tree/build_system
@mtytel Thanks a ton for open sourcing Vital!
@Be-ing Thanks for the build fix.
When I try to build that branch, I get:
make[1]: Entering directory '/build/source/standalone/builds/linux'
make[1]: Nothing to be done for 'all'.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/build/source/standalone/builds/linux'
install -d /usr/share/icons/hicolor//16x16/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor//22x22/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor//24x24/apps /usr/share/icons/hicolor//32x32/apps
install: cannot create directory '/usr': Permission denied
I am building commit adfe880 and I have DESTDIR set.
@magnetophon If you're still having trouble, you might want to try my fork of Vital, which, among various fixes, uses /usr/local as the default installation prefix and allows it to be configured via the PREFIX variable, and also disables the install_icons target from running automatically.
@taylordotfish Thanks, compiling as we speak!
