Hi,
I'm unable to get my package dvbcut to build it's RPM under F14. The
compile succeeds (and the executable runs OK, but the make install
stumbles when it tries to write directly to my /usr/... directory:
==== rpmbuild -ba dvbcut.spec:
...
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/davidt/rpmbuild/BUILD/dvbcut-svn170/src'

=====
One thing that has changed recently is addition of .desktop and icon
files into the upstream svn repo. It seems that now it tries to install
these, it shows up a bug in the original configure/make setup:
===== back further at the ./configure:
...
checking for main in -lqt-mt... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating makefile
config.status: WARNING: 'makefile.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir
setting
config.status: creating src/Makefile
config.status: WARNING: 'src/Makefile.in' seems to ignore the
--datarootdir setting
config.status: creating dvbcut.desktop
configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --disable-dependency-tracking
+ make
make -C src all
====
I did get further/ less (im not sure by altering the configure/make options:
mkdir
/home/davidt/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/dvbcut-0.6.0-11.svn170.fc14.x86_64/usr/share/dvbcut/icons
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 dvbcut.1

make[1]: *** [install-local] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/davidt/rpmbuild/BUILD/dvbcut-svn170'
make: *** [install] Error 2
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.5tV1Zz (%install)
====
, but essentially the same issue is occurring.
The web interface to svn repo is:
http://dvbcut.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/dvbcut/trunk/?pathrev=155
I don't understand the multi-layered configure/make process, so any tips
(or even clear online info pointers) would be good.
David.

Hence the permission is denied. You must patch Makefile to handle
$DESTDIR.

I think the Makefile already supports DESTDIR; try using:
make install \
DESTDIR=%{buildroot} \
bindir=%{_bindir} \
helpdir=%{_datadir}/%{name} \
mandir=%{_mandir}
instead of:
make install \
bindir=%{buildroot}%{_bindir} \
helpdir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/%{name} \
mandir=%{buildroot}%{_mandir}

OK, thanks guys.
I hadn't noticed the DESTDIR capability. I was reading the ./configure
--help, which mentions:
=====
Installation directories:
--prefix=PREFIX install architecture-independent files in PREFIX
[/usr/local]
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX install architecture-dependent files in EPREFIX
[PREFIX]
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=$HOME'.
For better control, use the options below.
Fine tuning of the installation directories:
--bindir=DIR user executables [EPREFIX/bin]
--sbindir=DIR system admin executables [EPREFIX/sbin]
--libexecdir=DIR program executables [EPREFIX/libexec]
...
=====
My most recent spec had:
make install \
prefix=%{buildroot}%{_prefix} \
execprefix=%{buildroot}%{_bindir} \
bindir=%{buildroot}%{_bindir} \
datadir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}
helpdir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/%{name} \
mandir=%{buildroot}%{_mandir} \
, which hadn't made much difference.
Where does DESTDIR definition come from ?
Where is it normally documented ?
Thanks heaps, David.

It's fairly standard these days and comes "for free" with autotools
though other build systems often use it too. What you were using was
essentially what the old %makeinstall macro did, which should be
avoided if possible:

Not quite. It comes "for free" with automake-based packages, as part of
automake generated Makefile.ins.
This package however only applies autoconf and manually written
Makefile.ins - I.e. somebody must have explictly implemented DESTDIR
into the Makefile.ins.
