Hmmm. I configure
#! /bin/sh
CONFIGURE="../configure --prefix='/home/angus/lyx-installed' \
--enable-maintainer-mode --with-version-suffix \
--with-pspell --with-included-gettext \
--with-frontend=qt --with-qt-dir=/usr/lib/qt-3.3"
echo "${CONFIGURE}"
cd ${BUILDDIR}
eval "${CONFIGURE}"
I've just removed the top level mkinstalldirs and installed without
problems (other than the reLyX stuff gets installed in <build
dir>lib/reLyX/\'/home/angus/lyx-installed\'/ ...)
Moreover, from my top-level build directory:
$ grep mkinstalldirs *
config.log:MKINSTALLDIRS='../config/mkinstalldirs'
config.status:s,@MKINSTALLDIRS@,../config/mkinstalldirs,;t t
Makefile:mkinstalldirs = $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/config/mkinstalldirs
Makefile:MKINSTALLDIRS = ../config/mkinstalldirs
It really looks like the file isn't used.
