Interestingly, when I was creating the gromacs packages and the

the shared libs ended up with linkages into /sw/src.

This is due to gnu libtool relinking on make install, I think. Depending on the version of gnu libtool that the package used etc. this may or may not be an issue, however since this package uses libtool, it probably uses automake as well and if the version of automake used is not prehistoric it will understand DESTDIR...


    Is the use of 'make install prefix=%i' wrong? Should we only
stick with 'make install DESTDIR=%d'? Or are we seeing some sort
of breakage in fink itself?

DESTDIR is preferred if it works, it does not always work however, so the default is 'make install prefix=%i', please always try DESTDIR and use it if it works.


Thanks,
