Package: libslang2 Version: 2.0.5-3 Severity: normal
The variable `_slang_install_prefix' == "/" but should be "/usr/". The slang doc says: SYNOPSIS S-Lang's installation prefix USAGE String_Type _slang_install_prefix DESCRIPTION The value of this variable is set at the S-Lang library's compilation time. On Unix systems, the value corresponds to the value of the `prefix' variable in the Makefile. For normal installations, the library itself will be located in the `lib' subdirectory of the `prefix' directory. NOTES The value of this variable may or may not have anything to do with where the slang library is located. As such, it should be regarded as a hint. A standard installation will have the `slsh' library files located in the `share/slsh' subdirectory of the installation prefix. So, while it is not mandatory to point to the right place, it helps other programs using slang and slang extensions. The jed editor uses _slang_install_prefix to set the jed_library_path to include: path_concat (_slang_install_prefix, "share/slsh/local-packages"); and path_concat (_slang_install_prefix, "share/slsh"); if these directories exist (in site.sl, line 3165 ff.) and fails, because of the wrong value for _slang_install_prefix.
