It's not as simple as that. I accidentally broke the non-fsstd way some time ago. Now it's a question of either fixing it as it was or doing things as they are done in practically all other packages. /Kim --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing more.

Most likely a problem on your end. quite possible, that.. but still, is there really any reason not to allways have --with-fsstd? As I see it, the people who want enlightenment into a separate folder, still can do that with --prefix... I think most ppl would be just as happy (or even totally unaware) if --with-fsstd was removed and the only option in this matter would be --prefix, since these options do _almost_ the same thing. However, I still don't think it SHOULD be removed! Many of us use UNIX/Linux because we are sick and tired of being bullied around in an MS environment, where we are forced to do things the MS way, and where the defaults are set and options do not exist. --with-fsstd and/or --prefix are options, meaning you don't have to use them if you don't want to. But for me and many others, these options are one of the main reasons for using this system, so let's keep it that way: Flexible and optional! Hmm... I didn't mean for this to get so philosophical, but I think you get the point, neither of these options are harmful, they just keep the system flexible! /J PS: BTW, did this issue come up because someone thought it to be hard to maintain two different options, or just because there was nothing else to discuss? If so, read the old article about the color of the shed from one of the FreeBSD lists. It applies anywhere, anytime! http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/misc.html#BIKESHED-PAINTING Cheers, -- Morten --- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Parasoft Error proof Web apps, automate testing more.

behaviortting it tack the /bin on that?
if test x$enable_fsstd = xyes; then
ENLIGHTENMENT_ROOT=${datadir}/enlightenment
ENLIGHTENMENT_BIN=${bindir}
LOCALEDIR=${prefix}/${DATADIRNAME}/locale
USE_FSSTD=yes
else
ENLIGHTENMENT_ROOT=${prefix}/enlightenment
ENLIGHTENMENT_BIN=${prefix}/enlightenment/bin
LOCALEDIR=${prefix}/enlightenment/locale
USE_FSSTD=no
fi
Wouldn't configure --prefix=/opt/enlightenment --datadir=/opt prove
the same layout as the non-fsstd code? Perhaps it would be simplest
to strip the non-fsstd code out and make a note on how to get the old
behaviour back if they really want it.
Or just fix the non-fsstd build, although that's just one more thing
that needs to be maintained then.
Why not hold a vote and go with the majority.
