Tim Kersten <tim.kers...@lincor.com> added the comment: I fail to see how these are, or at least should be mutually exclusive. Upon reading your reply I would think that if one was to specify both a --prefix and --root that the prefix would be relative to the --root.
i.e. --prefix changes the curront installation scheme as per usual i.e. --root specifies an alternative "root", but obeys the installation scheme in every other sense. i.e. (On linux) / => /path/to/alternative/root/ Any chance you could explain this further please? I'm having difficulties understanding why I'm wrong. ---------- versions: +Python 2.5, Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8357> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
