Yes, I was referring to --prefix=/opt/linuxcnc. I got master to work
after a fashion, but I see that there were a number of places that still
looked in the code to be installed in /usr/share instead of
/opt/linuxcnc/share, but I could be wrong there. There are other places
where the parts are expected to be installed in a relative order (which
is one of the reasons I put it in /opt/linuxcnc, so it will not
interfere/conflict with the distribution's standard locations).
