Hi everyone,
I am new at the board, so excuse me if I ask trivial questions.
I installed Mirage using opam following the instructions found at
http://www.openmirage.org/wiki/install
My system's details are:
Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
3.2.0-32-generic 64bit
The Objective Caml toplevel, version 3.12.1
opam version 0.7.7
(haven't installed Xen yet)
I do not want to install bins/libs under the default Linux path (
usr/{lib/bin} ) because I do not want to grant root privileges to
the installers.
As a point of start I aim to run the mirage wiki website locally via
the www-mirage package, through Unix binaries ( compiler
3.12.1+mirage-unix-direct ).
However, when I run "opam --verbose install mirage-www" without
sudo, the installation fails while trying to install mir-run at
"/usr/local/bin/mir-run".
I've seen that the default PREFIX in most mirage-related Makefiles
is /usr/local (requiring root privileges).
In order to fix that issue, I export a custom prefix path before I
proceed with the installation (e.g. export PREFIX=/data/bin).
Have I mis-configured Mirage during installation or the path
/usr/local is the default hard-coded installation path for certain
packages?
Regards,
Dimos
