|
|
|
|
| Indeed, my usual login is "dude" (and has been since long before "The Big
|
|
| Lebowsky" came out ;-)), and it seems the some programs wrongly hard code
|
|
| my home directory when being compiled :-(
|
|
| For instance :
|
|
|
|
|
| [dude@python dude]$ strings /usr/bin/gentoo | grep dude
|
|
| /home/dude/
|
|
| [dude@python dude]$ strings /usr/bin/xine | grep dude
|
|
| /home/dude/redhat/tmp/xine-root/usr/share/locale
|
|
|
|
|
| These should probably be considered bugs in the program's build process
|
|
| (especially for xine, look at that!), I'll report them upstream if/when I
|
|
| have some time.
|
|
|
|
This is a standard trap for people building things from source. It's
|
|
generally wise to have a special "build" environment to avoid these
|
|
hassles. Most likely you have some library loading path in your env. An
|
|
strace of the app will show it:
|
|
|
|
the-app 2>&1 | grep dude
|
|
|
|
Personally, I have a script called logbuild whose entire purpose is to
|
|
start a shell with a minimal build environment, logged with script. The
|
|
prevents this kind of error. Since configure yanks all sorts of ill
|
|
documented values from one's environment for use in the build (CC, ARCH,
|
|
various LD_* variables) this kind of thing is necessary.
|
|
|
|
Often the easiest thing is to have a special nonroot account with no .profile
|
|
for building stuff.
|
|

Cheers,
