Summary

0000926: lvm2 fails to install (DESTDIR issues)

Description

When running the `make install` stage of the LVM2 build, the install scripts attempt to write to /etc/lvm (instead of /path/to/staging_dir/etc/lvm), yeilding a "permission denied" when run as a non-root user. The supplied patch fixes this issue.

I found by replacing the current commands ran in package/lvm2/lvm2.mk to use DESTDIR rather than prefix, this problem was avoided.

This issue has been confirmed with SVN HEAD (revision 15529). A patch that corrects the issue has been included. Could someone review the patch and kindly submit it?

Thanks in advance. :-)

Stuart Longland

(0001458) redhatter 06-27-06 04:01	Hrmm, this seems to have wound up in the uClibc bug list... (I swear I clicked Busybox)... if it's out of place, I appologise.

(0001902) bernhardf 12-21-06 03:57	Fixed in r17026. Thanks!
