This may be a real problem then. I've heard there are problems installing under a prefix somewhere like setting prefix to /usr/X11R6/somefile or /usr/local/bin/testprefix, but setting the prefix to something like /tmp/test should work, if not then there's something wrong with the port. > > > > I think don't PREFIX was setup quite for what you were trying to do > > in this pr. > > well, i have installed both x11-wm/fvwm2 & x11-wm/fvwm-devel w/ > PREFIX=/usr/X11R6/wm/fvwm-{stable,devel}, respectively, and > everything was installed as expected. did i get lucky? > Possibly.

Could somebody please reopen this PR as this PR seemed to be steam-rolled over in order to close it. Problem still exists & i can reproduce on demand. If somebody need some form of debugging data not already submitted, i am more than willing to do that; just let me know what i need to do to generate that data. - parv -- State Changed From-To: closed->open reopnend on maintainer request. State Changed From-To: open->feedback This problem is caused by the fact the project uses imake. Imake is known to be rather inflexible when it comes to differing between build and install time variables. I gave it a shot, but I don't see an easy way to make this port PREFIX-safe. We could always just use our own install target if that would suit you. What do you think?
