I am building from a (relatively recent) git checkout. I have been using the in-place make target which installs in ./racket, but I'd like to have everything built and installed in a separate BUILD directory. My motivations are to have a single directory to rm -r when I want to start over and secondly to have a single directory to exclude from my nightly backups.
I can get the base built with: mkdir BUILD cd BUILD ../racket/src/configure --prefix=$PWD make && make install but then I need to deal with packages. I was able to hack the link-all.rkt to kinda work but the subsequent raco setup didn't seem to do anything significant. I'm pretty sure my hack was the wrong approach anyway, so I won't detail my steps with that. Is there an easy way to do what I want? Thanks for any help.
