Hello all!

I'm trying to package up PCP for OpenIndiana [1].  I grabbed the 3.5.8
tarball and applied the Solaris related commits in git.  It builds fine.
The issue is with the install target.

The package build process we're implementing at OI tries to use the DESTDIR
way of installing the software into a prototype directory.  Sadly, the PCP
makefiles don't work that way.  Thoughts about how to work around it?  (I'd
rather not have to make a patch which changes every makefile to support
DESTDIR or something like it.)

The top-level install-sh script used in the build respects $DIST_ROOT, you

should be able to set that to $DESTDIR and hopefully it will all work out.

cheers.
