Priority: normal
Bug ID: 4062
CC: mercurial-devel at selenic.com
Assignee: bugzilla at selenic.com
Summary: Bad PREFIX example
Severity: feature
Classification: Unclassified
OS: Linux
Reporter: almk277 at gmail.com
Hardware: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Version: 2.7.2
Component: Mercurial
Product: Mercurial
There is an example in the root Makefile about PREFIX:
# % make PREFIX=/opt/ install
This is unworkable (as it violates FHS). One could think that make will create
is's own directory in opt, but it doesn't (and pollutes /opt). A bit clearer
example could be, for example:
# % make PREFIX=/opt/mercurial install
