[Bucardo-general] Install problems with PREFIX

[Don Drake]

I'm attempting to install Bucardo using a server that I do not have root
privileges.  I was able to install the prerequisite modules using the
PREFIX= option.

When I do the same with Bucardo, the installation of bucardo_ctl seems to
not honor the PREFIX value I pass it.

$ perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/postgres/zz
Writing Makefile for Bucardo
$ make
Skip blib/lib/Bucardo.pm (unchanged)
cp bucardo_ctl blib/script/bucardo_ctl
/usr/bin/perl -MExtUtils::MY -e 'MY->fixin(shift)' --
blib/script/bucardo_ctl
Manifying blib/man1/bucardo_ctl.1pm
Manifying blib/man3/Bucardo.3pm
$ make install
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ERROR: Can't create '/usr/local/share/bucardo'
mkdir /usr/local/share/bucardo: Permission denied at
/postgres/perl/lib/perl5/5.8.8/ExtUtils/Install.pm line 457

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 at -e line 1
make: *** [pure_site_install] Error 13

I took a look at the Makefile that was created and I see that this is using
$DESTDIR, and if I set that with PREFIX, then it duplicates the paths
(/postgres/zz/postgres/zz) for the perl libraries.

Can you offer a fix/work around?

Thanks.
