I built ikiwiki using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
% perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/home/ed
|
|
|
|
|
% make
|
|
|
|
|
% make install
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This installs the files under /home/ed, for example one of the lines it prints is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cp -a basewiki/* /home/ed/share/ikiwiki/basewiki
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
However when I try to run ikiwiki I get an error as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
% ikiwiki --verbose ~/wikiwc/ ~/public_html/wiki/ --url=http://membled.com/wiki/
|
|
|
|
|
Can't stat /usr/share/ikiwiki/basewiki: No such file or directory

The PREFIX specified at build time should also affect the share directory -
|
|
|
|
|
it shouldn't try to use /usr/share here.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Actually, the PREFIX, no matter where you specify it, is only
|
|
|
|
|
intended to control where files are _installed_, not where they're
|
|
|
|
|
looked for at runtime.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There's a good reason not to make PREFIX be used to actually
|
|
|
|
|
change the program's behavior: Most packaging systems use PREFIX
|
|
|
|
|
when building the package, to make it install into a temporary
|
|
|
|
|
directory which gets packaged up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It would probably be nice if ikiwiki offered a separate build-time
|
|
|
|
|
setting to control where it looked for its data files, though it already
|
|
|
|
|
offers a way to do it at runtime (--underlaydir and --templatedir).
