Description: | The standard autoconf way to set $(localstatedir) is $(prefix)/var as reported by ./configure --help. Users expect that behaviour, but the asterisk's configure.ac contains code to intentionally change that default around line 50: if test ${localstatedir} = '${prefix}/var'; then localstatedir=/var fi There is no comment above that forced change, nor any WARNING for the user to take action (ie: explicitly specifying --localstatedir) ****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ****** Other bug reports affected by this bug are: 8605 9034 8555 I'd of course prefer if PREFIX would be used always, but I see there's lots of resistance by developers :) | ||
