Re: [Libvirt-cim] Postinstall question

Hello -
If my sfcb* scripts and binaries (sfcbrepos, sfcbmof, etc.) are in a
non-traditional location, and I want postinstall to ignore the standard
path sfcb directories (e.g. /usr/bin) - what is the easiest way for me
to do that? Adding the path of the sfcb* files to the normal PATH
complicates some other things for me and is not an option. Is there
another configure option, or environmental variable I can set to
accomplish this? I suppose I could hardcode a path like
MY_PATH/sfcbrepos in the provider_register.sh script, where I define the
MY_PATH as part of the make call, but I am hoping to avoid that.
Hi Luke,
We don't have any configure options that would achieve this. Like you
suggest, you could modify the sfcb_install() function of
provider_register.sh so that it points to the proper location.
Or, you could use symlinks so that the executables show up in a standard
location. This is probably the better option, because then you can grab
a new clone of the tree or a new tarball without having to update
provider_register.sh.
