Hi, I wrote the initial patch for --destdir support, and I have a couple of issues with r1841, I did email Luis and say I would have a look at the end of last month, but I've been a little tied up, sorry.
It uses RbConfig::TOPDIR, which on my x86_64 machine is nil, because of the way mkconfig generates TOPDIR. (It has a hardcoded 'lib' in it, my ruby is installed to 'lib64'. It looks like using RbConfig:CONFIG['prefix'] would be a better choice. This patch has also changed the behaviour of --destdir, and I'm not sure if this is intentional or not. My intent in adding --destdir was to replicate the functionality of make DESTDIR="/image" install So setup.rb --destdir="/foo" would install to "/foo/usr/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8" with this revision it would now be installed to "/foo/lib64/ruby/site_ruby/1.8", which is incorrect.
