I saw with scribus 1.0.1 and 1.1.1 that many icons, dicts, and .qm files were installed under a "lib/" directory.
For example, the icons Makefile has: $(mkinstalldirs) $(DESTDIR)$(prefix)/lib/scribus/icons/ Can you consider taking advantage of the --datadir in the ./configure script and $(datadir) in the Makefiles? Also, the code would have to be modified to know where to look for these. For example, scribus/helpbrowser.cpp, scribus/hyphenator.cpp, scribus/main.cpp, scribus/scfonts.cpp, scribus/scribus.cpp, scribus/scribuswin.cpp, scribus/util.cpp, scribus/libpdf/pdflib.cpp and maybe other files have hard-coded use of "/lib/". I can provide patches if this will be accepted. Please let me know. Please let me know if there is a better list to discuss developing scribus at. Thank you. This would be useful for packaging scribus so I don't provide packages that have non-library files under the libraries directories. Jeremy C. Reed http://bsd.reedmedia.net/ p.s. I am a pkgsrc developer. I develop specifications for pkgsrc which is used on several Unix platforms, like BSD/OS, Linux, AIX, IRIX, OpenBSD, NetBSD, FreeBSD, MacOS X, Darwin OS, Solaris and more. The pkgsrc is used to automatically fetch code, patch, configure, build, and install from source. It can also create ready-to-use binary packages. It is a categorized collection of thousands of applications. I use it to build all software for my own Linux distribution. I am working on updating scribus in pkgsrc. I need to package the documentation too.
