I'm testing out a new port and am having trouble with the installation
stage (make install). The problem is that when "make" runs the
"configure" script before compilation, a bad value for INSTALL is
chosen ("../" instead of "/usr/bin/install") and the result is
failure. I should note that it is only subdirectories that have this
problem (i.e, libmad below is a subdirectory), the top-level directory
doesn't.
If I run "./configure" by hand, the right value is chosen. Can anyone
account for this discrepancy? Take a look at the configure output
below. The first is when configure is run by hand, the the latter is
from a "make install" in the port directory.
(# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local i386--freebsd4.1.1)
configuring in libmad
running /bin/sh ./configure --prefix=/usr/local i386--freebsd4.1.1 --cache-file=.././config.cache --srcdir=.
loading cache .././config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... (cached) /usr/bin/install -c
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
