Jon, > Is the --prefix function in the configure script working under the svn > version of deal.II?
No, --prefix is not supported because make install is not supported. The primary reason is that we always felt that to do useful programming you need to debug into the library source files (e.g. to see where an exception was coming from) and if you need the source files around there's not much point in installing the libraries to some other location. I'm actually curious to hear what others have to say about this (e.g. whether it makes sense to install stuf and why). If I want several versions of deal.II, I usually just check out several copies into parallel directories...
