right way to compile wine with a "buildroot" DESTDIR is missing

[Raul Dias]

Hi,

I have been building wine RPMs for some time now.

The way I do is to specify the correct paths to ./configure
script (like prefix, mandir, bindir, ...).

After building I have to use an ugly make install
in orther to install it into another dir that is different
from the one.

However, talking to some wine developers on #winehq 
in openprojects network.
They state that a 
./configure --prefix=<you buildroot>/prefix

was enough.
That's because wine does not hardcode any %prefix related path.
This would simplify a lot the process.

However I just checked that wine does hardcode the %prefix
dir in the binaries.

This is done in dlls/ntdll/ntdll.dll.so and possible at 
miscemu/wine .

AFAIU, this is done to keep the path to the global registries
which is the Right Thing to do.

So what I really would like to know is
which way is the right way to install wine in a dir different
than %prefix or /usr/local (default %prefix)?

Is there any chance to get a DESTDIR implemented in the Makefiles?
