I'm a little lost in installing spamassassin without using the ./configure approach. For example: How does one instruct the `make install' to use /usr/local instead of /usr?
I don't know much about makefiles but looking at the one in the distro Makefile.PL and resulting Makefile, I couldn't tell poop about how an installation directroy is choosen. The second line of Makefile.PL says: my $DEF_RULES_DIR = '$(PREFIX)/share/spamassassin'; But what defines PREFIX. That instance is the only one in the file. Searching thru on DEF_RULES_DIR, I find this: DEF_RULES_DIR = $DEF_RULES_DIR LOCAL_RULES_DIR = $LOCAL_RULES_DIR Again it seems singularly useless in trying to understand what is happening. Are comments against the Law in Makefiles... hehe. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: Jabber Inc.
