Don't do this. People who install the binary package will not be able to access the three script files, then. Consider installing them into the appropriate documentation dir (eg. share/doc/whatever) or installing them, but with some kind of extension (eg. conf-file.xfwm). You may want to tell the user more about these files so that they can install them (where do they go?) or provide a script/commandline to do it for the user. > @dirrm lib/X11/XFCE/doc I realize it is quite common for X11 programs to install here ("hier", hehe), but if it's difficult to change, maybe you could at least provide an ``ln -s ${PREFIX}/lib/X11/XFCE/doc ${PREFIX}/share/doc/XFCE''. > diff -ruN xfce.orig/scripts/configure xfce/scripts/configure > --- xfce.orig/scripts/configure Thu Jan 1 09:00:00 1970 > +++ xfce/scripts/configure Wed Sep 2 15:38:55 1998 > @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ > +#!/bin/sh > + > +/usr/bin/perl -pi -e 's|/var/|'$X11BASE'/lib/X11/|g' $WRKSRC/goodies/sample.xfcerc You mean you need a whole scripts/configure for that!?
