Hello,
i did install the bluez-utils-3.9 from source.
configure --help tells me that all files are installed below /usr/local which is nice to keep the system clean.
But after running make install i find the hcid.conf and the dbus configuration files in /etc and not where expected in /usr/local/etc
Is it possible to move the configuration files from /etc to /usr/local/etc ?
Anyway I think its wrong in the installation or the description of the default behavior of make install.
BR
Hans-Juergen

Hello,
this is for all other that may need help.
if only running the normal way of building software
./configure
make
make install
this does install the dbus configuration files in /etc . But if you created the dbus daemon and its tools the same way, the configuration files of the dbus-daemon are searched in /usr/local/etc.
So the hcid cannot connect to dbus-daemon and wont work at all.
Anyway with the above way all other parts of the bluez-utils are installed in /usr/local. and the libs as well but that is part of the confusing system that a correct handling leads to strange results.
if you want the configuration file even been held in /usr/local, as expected, run ./configure --prefix=/usr/local that makes the default behaviour of the ./configure script behave as the default should. Install all below /usr/local. And it works like a charme.
What a glance of support.
BR to all

Hello,
this is no answer at all. =
./configure --help should give information about the configuration paramete=
r. And it did. README may be a good start.
This is the output from ./configure --help
By default, `make install' will install all the files in
`/usr/local/bin', `/usr/local/lib' etc. You can specify
an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' using `--prefix',
for instance `--prefix=3D$HOME'.
It is a kind of ignorance to point someone to a file and think thats it. Yo=
ur are working like M$. Take it or leave it.
The configuration files are in the wrong place. Can I move them to /usr/loc=
al/etc or not. That has been my question. And you did not tell me that. And=
it is not described in the README file whether to move the files.
The configuration utility. Gives wrong information about the place where fi=
les are installed. That is a fact. But it seems that it is out of your inte=
rest to change that.
Thank you for your not existing help.
