Anatoli Fomenko commented on BIGTOP-433:
----------------------------------------
Following Bruno's comments in BIGTOP-695, I'm using the following guidelines
while making the install script consistent across different packages:
# Use spec and rules files' install sections to determine what variables are
passed to the install scripts
# Keep $PREFIX out of the variable definitions in the install files, to reduce
duplicate work in spec and rules files
# Use common variable names, e.g. $LIB_DIR, $MAN_DIR, $DOC_DIR, etc.
# Remove unused variables
> Make variables used in build/install scripts consistent

> Key: BIGTOP-433
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-433
> Project: Bigtop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: General
> Affects Versions: 0.2.0, 0.3.0
> Reporter: Bruno Mahé
> Assignee: Anatoli Fomenko
> Fix For: 0.5.0
>
>
> I was working on some scripts across different packages and the
> inconsistencies make it hard to work efficiently.
> Each script uses a different meaning for variables (ex: $PREFIX/$LIB_DIR vs
> $LIB_DIR vs $PREFIX/$<PROJECT>_DIR).
> Having a consistent set of variables would make it much easier to edit these
> scripts.
