Unable to set library directory suffix

[ryanpcmcquen]

Firstly, thanks for this wonderful desktop environment and for making it portable! I was surprised at how easy it was to port to Slackware. ;-)

There is my lumina build script. Here are the important parts:

if [ -z "$ARCH" ]; then
  case "$( uname -m )" in
    i?86) ARCH=i486 ;;
    arm*) ARCH=arm ;;
       *) ARCH=$( uname -m ) ;;
  esac
fi
if [ "$ARCH" = "i486" ]; then
  SLKCFLAGS="-O2 -march=i486 -mtune=i686"
  LIBDIRSUFFIX=""
elif [ "$ARCH" = "i686" ]; then
  SLKCFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -mtune=i686"
  LIBDIRSUFFIX=""
elif [ "$ARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then
  SLKCFLAGS="-O2 -fPIC"
  LIBDIRSUFFIX="64"
else
  SLKCFLAGS="-O2"
  LIBDIRSUFFIX=""
fi

qmake \
  PREFIX=/usr \
  LIBDIR=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
  QMAKE_CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
  QMAKE_CXXFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS"

make -j1 \
  OPTS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
  LIBDIR=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
  PREFIX=/usr

make install \
  INSTALL_ROOT=$PKG \
  DESTDIR=$PKG

if [ $LIBDIRSUFFIX = "64" ]; then
  mkdir -pv $PKG/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}
  mv -v $PKG/usr/lib/* $PKG/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}/
  rm -rf $PKG/usr/lib
fi

As you see, despite setting the library path to /usr/lib64 (on 64-bit only), I still have to manually move the libraries. Everything works as expected, but it'd be nice if the build respected this setting.

Thanks.

Glad you like the portability of it! I try to keep things tidy... :-)

From looking over your build script highlights, it sounds like you just need an extra variable to be able to pass into the Qt project file for additional library directories. I will look into adding that functionality into the libLumina build process here soon. Since we already have to account for a custom PREFIX, I am thinking of just adding a variable to that same script so that you can also pass in a custom LIBDIR (Example: $PREFIX/$LIBDIR for the build library directory instead of the current $PREFIX/lib)

[beanpole135]

Ok, I just made the changes[1]. Now you should be able to just pass the "LIBPREFIX" variable into your qmake command to build all the projects (full directory path - default is $PREFIX/lib if not set).

Example: "qmake PREFIX=/usr LIBPREFIX=/usr/lib64"

So fast! Thanks a bunch! :-)
