Are there other places where we try to auto-detect install directory names? I don't know of any. It would be simple to add something like --with-pkgdatadir to configure. It sounds like you are talking about a build for a distro; requiring a configure option for that doesn't sound like a big deal (as presumably you already need --prefix=/usr among other things). Tom
