As reported by Nicolas Iooss, there are still some inconsistencies
in the definitions and usage of Makefile variables related to bin
and sbin directories. Since we need to still support non-usrmerge
systems, we cannot completely synchronize them, but we can eliminate
unnecessary differences, remove unused variables, and drop the
USRSBINDIR variables.
Before:
$ find . -name Makefile -exec cat {} + |grep '^[A-Z_]*BINDIR' |sort -u
BINDIR=$(PREFIX)/bin
BINDIR ?= $(PREFIX)/bin
BINDIR ?= $(PREFIX)/sbin
SBINDIR ?= $(DESTDIR)/sbin
SBINDIR ?= $(PREFIX)/sbin
USRSBINDIR ?= $(PREFIX)/sbin
After:
$ find . -name Makefile -exec cat {} + | grep '^[A-Z_]*BINDIR' | sort -u
BINDIR ?= $(PREFIX)/bin
SBINDIR ?= $(DESTDIR)/sbin
SBINDIR ?= $(PREFIX)/sbin
This does not change the actual install location of any file.
It does drop the legacy symlink from /usr/sbin/load_policy to
/sbin/load_policy; packagers can create that separately if
desired.
