This is one of the main reasons build-as-nobody was invented, namely to catch bugs like this.

FYI. I wouldn't call this "fairly unusual", there are many different ways to do such things correctly in different Fink packages, but this one is just plain *wrong*, it should never have been accepted. This is a bug that needs fixing. I think the autotools use in this package is standard, i.e. one can probably use the default --prefix=%p and then "make install DESTDIR=%d". Needs testing, of course. This problem concerns all 5 or 6 packages from this tracker item: <http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=2134465&group_id=17203&atid=414256> -- Martin ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
