make install tries to write to /share

[iampure@…]

With this configure command ./configure --prefix=$HOME --with-ghc=/usr/bin/ghc-6.6.1 (and all the other usual commands) doing make install gives (it tries to write to the /share directory, which should be $HOME/share in my case):

---

== Finished recursively making `install' for ways: p debug thr thr_p thr_debug ... PWD = /home/foo/haskell/ghc/rts

---

== make install -r;

in /home/foo/haskell/ghc/libraries

if ifBuildable/ifBuildable base; then \

cd base && \ ../installPackage/installPackage "" /home/foo $prefix/share/ghc /home/foo/share/doc/ghc/libraries /home/foo/haskell/ghc/utils/ghc-pkg/ghc-pkg-inplace /home/foo/lib/ghc-6.7.20070906/package.conf; \

fi installPackage: /share: createDirectory: permission denied (Permission denied)

make[1]: *** [install.library.base] Error 1 make: *** [install] Error 1

This was caused by ignoring datarootdir and is already fixed. Note that I'm currently working on bringing the GHC build system more in line with the GNU coding standards, so feel free to reopen the bug if things break again.
