Subject: [PATCH] trace-cmd: Have /etc paths honor $(prefix) if not the default
Date: Wed, 29 Jan 2020 10:43:12 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200129104312.2ba4a7a1@gandalf.local.home> (raw)


From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

As some files need to be placed in the root directory to take effect (like
the bash_completion) and not the normal /usr/local directory, they ignore
the $(prefix) and install directly. Unfortunately, this means that if
someone does a build like "make O=/tmp/mydir install" those files will still
try to be installed in the root "/etc" directory, and that will not work if
the user installing does not have permission.

Have the "/etc" directory change if prefix is something other than
"/usr/local".
