standard destination

[halma]

hi

id just like to ask, under Debian Linux is it usually to put the "libs" under "/lib" or "/usr/lib" and also the other main system stuff for usually.

If i am right then Tinycorelinux is the needs all under "/usr/local/" as destination. I am right with Tinycorelinux ?

best regards

You are right

Hi bmarkus
then almost all configure scripts needs "--prefix=/usr/local" and also "libdir=/usr/local/lib"  , thats right ?

sorry may its to hot here in Germany to think clean ;-)

best regards

--prefix=/usr/local is enough, gnu autotools will dervie lib, share, bin, sbin, etc. in most cases from prefix. The best is to issue

Code: [Select]

./configure --help
in the terminal in the source tree; at the beginning you will see how to configure directories
