Bug Description

I just pulled the latest version from bzr. I generated the configure and Makefile.in scripts, ran "configure --prefix=$HOME/stow/byobu-bzr" and ran make && make install.

When I ran the new byobu, it said I needed to set BYOBU_PREFIX. The README says the same.

I expected that after running ./configure with --prefix, that it should know where I installed.

Bonus points for letting "make install prefix=/some/dir" change where it is installed without modifying this configured default.

Ciao!

Agreed. I need to think about the best way to solve this. I suppose a big fat 'sed' would do it, but I need to think about it a bit more...

Thanks for running bzr HEAD :-)

    - Positively massive changeset, enabling users of Unix/Linux distros
      for which Byobu is not packaged (as well as non-root users of any
      Unix/Linux distro) to $(./configure && make && make install) byobu!
      LP: #609851, #608995, #503554
    - I think this is a significant enough milestone to bump version to 3.0
  * install, manpages, rules: update package build/install procedures to
    use configure && make && make install
  * debian/control:
    - depend on automake
    - autoconf for new build
    - bump standards
    - use breaks instead of conflicts
  * AUTHORS, README: update email address and install instructions
  * debian/rules, usr/bin/byobu-export, usr/share/man/man1/byobu-export.1:
    - deprecate the byobu-export utility
  * usr/share/man/man1/byobu.1: fix lintian warning about hyphen
  * usr/share/applications/byobu.desktop: fix lintian warning about encoding
    key
  * debian/source/format: added
  * configure.ac: fixup BYOBU_PREFIX in the configure, LP: #611157
  * rpm/byobu.spec: deprecated; byobu is now in Fedora proper; please use
    that package if you require RPMs
  * configure.ac, usr/bin/byobu: bump to version 3.0
