A lot of times we install to a side folder, so we can later tar and package the sub-folder without actually affecting our live system. What will happen with the packagers that are not RPM don't they rely on this? I would like to let the user to install nfs-utils on the side and to not conflict with the running system. Someone how knows what he is doing can override the Kernel path to what he wants. Just as he will need to override the nfs init scripts. So I would prefer if we can just create the $(DESTDIR)/sbin/ > -all-local: $(OSD_LOGIN_FILES) > +OSD_LOGIN_FILES= osd_login > > -install-data-hook: > - $(INSTALL) --mode 755 osd_login $(DESTDIR)/sbin/osd_login > +sbin_SCRIPTS= osd_login > But actually I do not understand these Makefiles. It might be that it's what I want with the above "sbin_SCRIPTS=" > MAINTAINERCLEANFILES = Makefile.in Thanks Boaz
