Of course, but I always do "make install" because I want to install Cfengine. I don't compile it for any other reason but to install it. (Since I'm a user of Cfengine.) > To have "make install" put everything under /var/cfengine, just add > "--prefix=/var/cfengine" to your configure options. Interesting. I thought /var/cfengine was meant to be a "local cache" *in addition* to the default install directory. What happens if you make /var/cfengine the default install prefix? Do you lose the "local cache"? > As discussed a couple of times on the list now, the main reason for > using shared libraries is efficiency (80% reduction of memory/disk size > - which also leads to faster execution). That's great! Sorry I missed the earlier discussion. Thanks for repeating it. I agree this is a highly desirable improvement. Thanks, Eystein!
