Hello,
I am trying to build strongswan on one system, 'install' it in a local
directory structure,
and then later install all of this to another machine.
I'm configuring with ./configure prefix=
And installing with: make && PREFIX=
DESTDIR=/home/greearb/btbits/x64_btbits/server/local make install);
That seems to properly put things in
/home/greearb/btbits/x64_btbits/server/local
On the installed machine, the 'server/local' files will be placed in a
different location.
So, things like the 'ipsec' script that have have hard-coded paths with fail:
# where the private directory and the config files are
30 IPSEC_DIR="/home/greearb/btbits/x64_btbits/server/local/libexec/ipsec"
31 IPSEC_BINDIR="/home/greearb/btbits/x64_btbits/server/local/bin"
32 IPSEC_SBINDIR="/home/greearb/btbits/x64_btbits/server/local/sbin"
33 IPSEC_CONFDIR="/home/greearb/btbits/x64_btbits/server/local/etc"
34 IPSEC_PIDDIR="/var/run"
35 IPSEC_SCRIPT="ipsec"
Is there a better way other than post-editing the ipsec tool (and who knows
what else?)
Thanks,
Ben

Hi Ben,
First, maybe autogen could detect this missing gperf right at the
beginning and tell the user?
./autogen.sh is just a wrapper for autogen -i these days, so it won't
help users calling that directly.
Doing such a check in ./configure is no option, as gperf is not
required for an ordinary build from tarball. The gperf (and other)
output is part of the distribution tarball, so that users don't need
non-standard tools.
You could check for existence of gperf or detect that you are in a build
system that has already successfully run gperf and fail if neither of those
are true.
The make maintainer-clean is indeed a useful step. If the make file were
done better, though, it could add a dependency such that when the gperf
generated files or makefile were changed, then they are automatically re-built.
Please see the patch that I posted that fixes detection of gperf on
older build systems. With that, it builds back to fedora-17 at least.
Centos-6 still fails, but I am thinking I will just ignore that.
Thanks,
Ben
confread.o: In function `load_conn':
/home/greearb/git/strongswan/src/starter/confread.c:568: undefined
reference to `in_word_set'
Try "make maintainer-clean", and start from scratch with autogen and
./configure.
The problem here is that the gperf rule generates an empty file if
gperf is missing, and then "make" thinks the file is up to date once
gperf got installed. I've tried to address this issue with [1].
