make install doesn't respect DESTDIR

[Graham Billiau]

There are two points where make install installs files outside of $DESTDIR. I've attached a patch which corrects this.

I'm sure the first chunk won't break anything, but you may not want to apply the second chunk to the main tree. The installation process is complicated enough already and it would add an extra step.

This is just the first of several problems I've noticed while creating Gentoo packages for OpenSRF and Evergreen. Should you choose not to apply this patch I'll continue to maintain it as part of the Gentoo packages (it won't install without these patches).

Thanks. Upon glancing at it, I see what you mean about that second chunk; I'm inclined to spin off the question of installing and activating the Apache modules in a more cross-platform way into a separate bug report.

I've pushed a version of the patch to the working/OpenSRF repository that I believe handles the apxs2 stuff in a way to keep both packagers and folks installing from the tarball happy:

Graham, please let me know if this approach would work for you.

That's a good solution. It meets Gentoo's needs and doesn't make things harder for normal people.

Thanks for the feedback. I've gone ahead and merged the revised patch to master and rel_2_5.
