dict-beta

[mpj17 <MP...@st...>]

Compiling <dictd-1.5.0> on a Solaris 5.7 box I came across a bug in the
Makefile.  While the <INSTALL> variable was correctly set (to
</usr/local/gnu/bin/install -c> ) the <INSTALL> variable was not used in
the <install.dict>, <install.dictzip>, and <install.dictd> targets. 
Instead the targets used <install> with no path (which is the Sun
install on this system), and promptly fell over.  The bug was corrected
by modifying the lines 143--155 to

install.dict: dict
	$(INSTALL) dict $(bindir)
	$(INSTALL) -m 644 dict.1 $(man1_prefix)/dict.1

install.dictzip: dictzip
	$(INSTALL) dictzip $(bindir)
	$(INSTALL) -m 644 dictzip.1 $(man1_prefix)/dictzip.1

install.dictd: dictd
	$(INSTALL) dictd $(sbindir)
	if test ! -d $(man8_prefix); then $(INSTALL) -d 755 $(man8_prefix); fi
	$(INSTALL) -m 644 dictd.8 $(man8_prefix)/dictd.8

I thought you may want to know for future releases :)
