[TrouSerS-tech] [PATCH] build: don't override --localstatedir --mandir --sysconfdir

[André D. <gi...@an...>]

From: André Draszik <adr...@ty...>

It is currently impossible to override localstatedir,
mandir and sysconfdir during ./configure, because they
are being overriden unconditionally because of they
way trousers is built using rpmbuild.

If they need massaging for rpmbuild, the values should
be specified inside the spec file, not in ./configure
and thereby overriding user-requested values.

With this patch it is now possible to set above
locations as needed. The .spec file is being modified
as well so as to restore previous behaviour.
