Ticket #12312 (new enhancement)

Opened 6 years ago

Last modified 6 years ago

RFE: Autoconf of various manpages

Reported by: sfiera@… Owned by: sfiera@…
Priority: Low Milestone: MacPorts Future
Component: base Version:

Description

Currently, many manpages reference ${prefix} directly as such, including locations given for system files. Rather than doing so, it would be nice to replace these locations with the actual locations on the system, which we can do with autoconf. The attached patch will do that.

This may not be an ideal change, since some of the manpages are documenting MacPorts in general, rather than for the end-user. However, at least some of these should definitely merit changing, particularly in the FILES section of the manpages.

As per comments by landonf, I have updated the patch so it does the substitution during make rather than ./configure.
