#3811: ./configure --help lists incorrect default install location
---------------------------+---------------------------
Reporter: chrismarx | Owner: pramsey
Type: task | Status: new
Priority: low | Milestone: PostGIS 2.4.0
Component: postgis | Version: trunk
Keywords: documentation |
---------------------------+---------------------------
When you run ./configure --help, it says:
{{{
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'.
}}}
But installing the latest 3.4dev build
(http://postgis.net/stuff/postgis-2.4.0dev.tar.gz), the files are instead
installed to "/usr/lib/postgresql/10/bin/"
Not much of a problem, it's still easy enough to find out where they went,
but they're certainly not where the documention indicates-
