>Environment:
System: FreeBSD atlantis.rodal.no 5.1-BETA FreeBSD 5.1-BETA #30: Sat May 31 16:12:18 CEST 2003 root@atlantis.rodal.no:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/atlantis i386

NOTE: also applies to FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE.

>Description:

The ``make install'' fails with:

  # make install
  ===>  Installing for apache-2.0.45
  ===>   apache-2.0.45 depends on shared library: expat.4 - found
  PKG_PREFIX=/usr/local /bin/sh pkg-install apache-2.0.45 PRE-INSTALL
  pkg-install: Can't open pkg-install: No such file or directory
  *** Error code 2

  Stop in /usr/ports/www/apache2.
  #

Adding a ``pwd'' just after the ``pre-install:'' line in the Makefile
shows that the script is being run from the wrong directory.


NOTE: This is still not fixed in 2.0.46!
NOTE: This also applies to a few other ports that also do not use the
      ${PKGINSTALL} variable instead of referencing pkg-install.

>How-To-Repeat:

Set WRKDIRPREFIX in /etc/make.conf and try to ``make install'' on
www/apache2 port.  I used WRKDIRPREFIX="/usr/obj" on my machines.
I do not know if the WRKDIRPREFIX is the root of the cause, but that
is the only thing seperating my machines from a standard FreeBSD
environment.

>Fix:

Change the Makefile to use ${PKGINSTALL} instead of ``pkg-install.''
A suggestive patch is included below.
