When building the cygwin1.dll and associated pieces, it is desirable to use the proper runtime --prefix parameters to 'configure'. After building the tree, one might want to install it into a different base directory than 'prefix' using, e.g., 'make install DESTDIR=/my/own/dest', rather than installing into the running system. Unfortunately as it stands, the build system will install only a portion of the code into 'DESTDIR/prefix', and another portion simply into 'prefix'. The attached patch corrects the relevant Makefiles to honor the DESTDIR variable. -Karl Brose -------------- next part -------------- An embedded and charset-unspecified text was scrubbed...
