Hello, Guys
There are two options for prefixes: --prefix and --copy-prefix. In my opinion they have the same meaning and I wonder whether we need to have two different options for configure and copy commands. Any thoughts?
Do you mean whether they should be called the same thing, or whether both commands should have a prefix flag? If it's the former, I don't care overly much, but they do have different behaviors, so I wanted to call them something different so the user didn't think that they could get away with using the copy-prefix flag later on as a drop-in replacement for the prefix flag. In particular, the prefix from configure might get baked into the executables or manpages somehow, whereas the copy-prefix just tells it where to copy stuff. peace, isaac
