[Gdal-dev] Creating gdal package problem

[MZM]

Hi, 
 
I'm just a newbee in Linux and I wanted to install GDAL clean way. 
(Sorry for my eng.) 
 
I culdn't understand how to create gdal package for Slackware. I 
always install soft only from packages. Normal way of package 
creation: 
./configure --prefix=/usr 
make 
make install DESTDIR=/home/user/pkg/ 
or make install prefix=/home/install/pkg/usr 
Then directory content are packed into package and only then 
installed to /usr.  
Problem is - GDAL ignores DESTDIR or PREFIX.  
Same is on Gentoo - there pakage first is compiled (sugested to 
compile with --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man and 
--infodir=/usr/share/info) and then installed to sandbox 
(/var/tmp/package_name/image) and, only if there are no errors, then 
it is moved to /usr. If during make install it tries to do something 
in /usr, then installation is terminated. 
I worked around python with --with-pymoddir, and all seemd fine, 
except: 
 
libtool: install: warning: relinking `_gdalmodule.la'

libtool: install: error: relink `_gdalmodule.la' with the above 
command before installing it

make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/var/tmp/portage/gdal-1.2.5/work/gdal-1.2.5/pymod' 
make: *** [install-actions] Error 2 
 
As can see form error - it looks in /usr/lib for some stuff (I'm not 
a coder), buth that stuff isn't there - its in 
some /tempinstalldir/lib. 
 
So - where is my mistake? Is there way how to install gdal to some 
tempdir before moving to /usr? I know about 
--prefix=/tempinstalldir/usr, but it's ugly hack. 
 
Any help welcome :)
