${PREFIX}/rt38/plugins is correct for the layout introduced with RT-3.8.x=
,
(although not for the layout used with rt36) and installing these extensi=
on
modules anywhere else makes no sense at all. It's simply broken.

Hmmm... RT's idea of what PREFIX means is quite different to what the por=
ts
uses it for. In fact, it seems to me that RT treats $PREFIX pretty much
as if it was identical to $RTHOME. It's all particularly confusing since=
RT
itself expects to be installed with everything under it's own directory t=
ree
rooted at ${PREFIX}/rt3 (for FreeBSD values of PREFIX) and the rt38 port =
now
spreads everything across a number of different locations.
All the correct paths are already enumerated in ${SITE_PERL}/RT.pm
(or ${PREFIX}/rt3/lib/RT.pm for 3.6.x). Most of the effort in the RT Ext=
ension
ports I maintain is telling each of those modules where to find RT.pm
-- except that when $PREFIX is set in the environment it overrides that.
Even when $PREFIX is set to the default case of /usr/local it breaks the =
build
-- so instead of looking for ${SITE_PERL}/RT.pm it looks instead for /usr=
/local/lib/RT.pm
I think that your patch essentially does that, but see ports/136656 where=
I have a simpler solution -- just remove $PREFIX from the environment
during configuration.
Cheers,
Matthew
