I am the maintainer for the FreeBSD port of srvx and I
would find it useful if I were able to specify at the
time of ./configure'ing if it were possible to specify
where the .help files should be installed to and looked
for by srvx. The reason for this is that FreeBSD ports
like to keep things in specific directories instead of
following the default srvx installation system in which
all files are put in one directory. binaries in
/usr/local/bin, configs in /usr/local/etc, and so forth.
It would also be useful if the same were available for
the .conf files.
ircu actually has something similar to what I am
requesting, they have the generic --prefix but then
they also allow for more specific installation paths
for each file type. Unfortunately my abilities aren't
quite strong enough to hack this myself ;)
Thanks for any time you can spend on this issue.
