Commit Message

Andrea Claudi Oct. 2, 2021, 4:41 p.m. UTC
This commit allows users/packagers to choose a lib directory to store
iproute2 lib files.

At the moment iproute2 ship lib files in /usr/lib and offers no way to
modify this setting. However, according to the FHS, distros may choose
"one or more variants of the /lib directory on systems which support
more than one binary format" (e.g. /usr/lib64 on Fedora).

As Luca states in commit a3272b93725a ("configure: restore backward
compatibility"), packaging systems may assume that 'configure' is from
autotools, and try to pass it some parameters.

Allowing the '--libdir=/path/to/libdir' syntax, we can use this to our
advantage, and let the lib directory to be chosen by the distro
packaging system.

But you end up with:

Hi Luca,
and thanks for your review.

This is probably because my patch does not manage the --prefix option I
see in your command line. I'll fix this in v2.

Regards,
Andrea
