Description Michael Monreal 2006-11-26 11:54:53 UTC 
I just build a new CVS HEAD checkout with --prefix=/opt/gnome2.18 and it tries to install stuff to /usr:

test -z "/usr/share/dbus-1/services" || mkdir -p -- "/usr/share/dbus-1/services"
 /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 'com.beatniksoftware.Tomboy.service' '/usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.beatniksoftware.Tomboy.service'
/usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/share/dbus-1/services/com.beatniksoftware.Tomboy.service': Permission denied

While it is true that my dbus installation is in /usr, I would rather not have to sudo make install but link the service file manually

Comment 2 Boyd Timothy 2007-01-05 18:21:55 UTC 
Committed the above patch to SVN trunk.  Packagers now need to uncomment the detection code in configure.in for the org.gnome.Tomboy.service file to be installed to the proper location.
