Any ideas about how to move the USE_FOO_PACKAGING stuff to the configure script? > Angus> Question. Should localedir be set unless I explicitly define > Angus> the LYX_LOCALEDIR environment variable?

I think I can parse it, but > then I do not understand it... Sure. We have three tests to find the "localedir". 1. Use an environment variable, LYX_LOCALEDIR, to point us to it. 2. Try and guess localedir from the <path to executable>/../locale. 3. Fall back on the hard-coded LOCALEDIR macro that is passed to package.C as a compiler flag. If we run LyX in-place, then (2) fails. I'm suggesting that if LyX is run in-place, then we shouldn't fall through to try (3) because it's an 'installed' location, not an 'in-place' one. -- Angus
